That's amazing!
How did you do the carapace (not sure if that's the correct term) material?

Definitively shocking! Great shot, great scattered rays and great iridescence effect!

Superb, Gabich ! I would cockily encourage you to hack into the caterpillar test scene for an encounter.

Okay I'd bet the carapace (exact word in french) is made out of a blend of a metallic phong with an normal one... the effect of the hairs is bluffing also.

If you want to get a 'real' interference effect, you can modify Galinette's awesome interference-based shader ( http://www.indigorenderer.com/materials/materials/1065 )

If you increase the thickness in the shader a bit, the colours come out blue/green. here it is with thickness 1000:
