I started out going to mock how unimpressive your node tree looked and that how it would have been more impressive if you had arranged them in a spiral orbit around your viewer node but thought, nah that’d be tacky and just comment on your node noodling prowess to make something look good from nothing.

So yeh, well done ‘Node Master’!
