Black Hole with Accretion Disk - Animated

For this project, I needed to create an advanced shader to bend the light around the black hole and the accretion disk realistically. Although I kept the model as realistic as possible, it's still an artist's rendition of the real-world counterpart. The project will be available for free to download. I learned a lot on handling very complex shader node set ups during the creation of this project. Space!
