      I am creating an animation for a space that used dichroic glass, but I can't seem to create anything that even remotely looks or behaves convincingly (at the moment I'm stuck with applying a pastel gradient on some glass). Does anyone have any ideas for creating a material that would look something like this?:

      Any help would be greatly appreciated!

        That's beautiful. Good luck. Are you looking at this in your rendering package?

          The images are just photos from the web, but I'm trying to create the material with Vray for Sketchup.

                  I saw Massimo knocked it out the park, his is by far better than anything I achieved, not going to embarrass myself by posting mine, but rather show the OP what was achieved by master Massimo using Thea.
