Description Always been a big fan of silver jewelry. Hope you like.

3-11-05 Edit: I always thought this needed just a little something more, so when *Eynowd said Winter Blossoms looked like a big diamond, it got me thinking. I imported that file into UF and rendered it this way. No postwork.

Thanks to *MelonLogic for the original apophysis file that got this all going.

Thanks. I took Winters Blossom and imported into the other image to make a more intricate piece of jewelry.

Can't make a print of The Brooch because it contained files from two programs, so the render time was really long. Too long for a print. Not sure about Winter Blossoms. It was a colab, so if I did, I'd have to get permission from Fuelman.

Thanks. If I can figure out all the bugs, I was thinking about posting a tut on how to do this. First trial was murder, so I'm not ready to torture the group yet. Needs a little work.

Oh, thanks, but I wasn't referring to the tut, but the rendering instead. It was murder the way it rendered. Kept kicking out and took about 10 times as long. I need to go and check why it was so unfriendly before I throw that burden at anyone.

it's a crazy diamond from planet xerolia.

I think there should be some more contrast on the white part, it just looks too equally white.

Aeires In reply to weedonio [2005-03-14 04:29:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

It was a combination apophysis and uf render (together as one), so I'm still working on the technique. I'll see what I can do if I try it again. This one was murder to render because of the apo import, so I'm not sure I want to try that again.

I really like the way that you contrast simplicity with complexity, it works really well. I am not sure that I see it as a piece of jewelry, but I may be just haveing a temporay lack of imagination. some of the details seem to faded, and washed out, I tend to like a little more clarity and contrast, really nice job overall though, as always.

Thanks, Spencer. First time importing apophysis into UF, so I'm still working out the bugs. I might try some more experiments. Not really sure because it is really murder on the render times and very limited in what it can do, so I've seen so far. Time will tell.

Aeires In reply to mmbenya [2005-03-13 04:34:49 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. Been going through a lot of older works now that I feel more comfortable with the programs. Learned a lot in the past year, like combining two programs into one for this image.

Hey do you have a link to the other program you mentioned you used?

Aeires In reply to mmbenya [2005-03-14 04:18:57 +0000 UTC]

The main part of the image was Ultra Fractal [link] . It's one of a very small amount of pay fractal programs, but after using it, I'm convinced it's worth more than the $60 or so. It has layering capabilities like photoshop, thousands of formulas to mix, mapping abilities to take the image and place it on preset patterns like orbs, egg shapes, and water effects, plus transparency options for each layers color pattern. The most layers I've heard of being used was an image that had over 430. It was loaded with details and textures. It's called Ultra Fractal because it is ultra in it's capabilities.
