So, ~LionThatWaits and I made a deal that if we send each other a tutorial, we would try our best to complete it. Well here's my end the bargain. The tutorial I used, somewhat, is here [link] by =Embers-are-left that was the base concept. then I decided to do the gems- another tutorial, [link] by ~shrela

(sigh) I realize its rather silly to have tried so hard smoothing the skin texture then adding rock texture... to only realize it looks like skin again.
