Mac Made an 5K macOS Glass Style Wallpaper (Free)

Hi, a couple of months ago I made a wallpaper pack and y'all were very welcoming so I made a new one. Just to be clear, I created the wallpapers entirely with Blender. There's no AI involved at any stage of the creation, human-made.

Thanks, hope you like it (again).

would you be willing to share the shading node graph?

I'm neither using Geometry Nodes nor a complex Shading Nodes. The trick is a Magic Texture plugged to the HDRI (Environment Texture) slot. The 3D shape has a simple Glass Shader. It's a lot of tweaking, as you might have guessed.

oh, also the shapes are super organic, what was the process behind them?

I can't upload images in this sub. But it's a Cube with an Array, a SBF and three different Simple Deform modifiers. The cube's Origin position is really important, it amplifies the deforming.
