Any thoughts?

You can also make it with Principled Shader only if you like to keep things simple.

Node setup:

As mentioned above, add Principled Shader, set Subsurface Scattering to around 0.2-0.3, tweak Roughness and you are ready to go.

Scene setup:

For this setup (and reference image) you will need some strong directional light in front of your object. I've used Area Light, scaled on X axis.

For the basic setup, add Translucent, Glass and Subsurface Scatter shaders. In the volume section use volume absorption.

You can then add textures to some of the elements to make the texture less homogeneous.

  • $\begingroup$ Hi, thank you so much for your answer! I've never used the volume node that way before but it looks awesome! $\endgroup$ – Ferwous Jun 21 '18 at 18:38

    $\begingroup$ Volume absorption is a good tool to add color when dealing with liquids, glass and translucent objects. $\endgroup$ – cegaton Jun 21 '18 at 18:42

    $\begingroup$ I think you broke the energy conservation with the add shaders, it glows like a lamp. $\endgroup$ – Jaroslav Jerryno Novotny Jun 21 '18 at 21:13
