How about we simulate some self-propelling procedural growing frost with X-Particles in Cinema 4D? We use the branch modifier to, well, branch the frost out, set some parameters and let it grow on its own. Then we render it in Arnold or Standard Renderer, I'll show both.
The beauty of this technique is that it works on pretty much any object. From Bunnies to Buddhas.
I'm using X-Particles 3.0 in this tutorial.
