There's something weird about the lens in your model.

Weird in as much as I can get better iridescence on that than I can on a shape that looks exactly similar but made in another prog (Wings), but I can't get the same effect on it.

Here are a couple of attempts:

Irid24

 

And another:

Irid25

Comparison of the top 2 in particular shows that the lens on the left has more variation in colour than the right one (Right is Wings, left is Clay's), but both use same image.

Here however I am using a different image on the WingsLens on the right:

Irid26

When I use the same image, the colour is predominately blue as the left one is now, but the colour differences are more subtle.

Measure your mind's height
by the shade it casts.
