<aside> 💡

I’d like to thank you for your interest in the Advanced Crystal Gem Master Material Pack (Substrate)!

This is my very first published pack, so please feel free to leave me some feedback and if you have any ideas on how it can be improved, I’d be happy to hear.

I plan to also release a much more performant PBR version next, and I will be tweaking this pack to increase performance and more than likely adding additional Material Instances if there are any specific requests.
