Description Created with Apophysis 2.06 3D hack.

Edit as of 10/17/08: This piece has always been a subject of debate for me as of its standing in my gallery. I never liked all of the hot spots I produced when rendering this, but I also loved the numerous shapes (especially the helix) I got out of it.

The public has obviously spoken. Thanks a lot for the support, everyone.

Comments and critiquing greatly appreciated.

I couldn't really put that concept into a fractal form.

Very funny.

I don't see how it could be better, and as to whether its a keeper or not, the DD should tell you what we think. Very nice work, keep it up

kdotx [2008-10-18 02:18:10 +0000 UTC]

Definitely something to add. It's a nice piece and u could try expanding on ur knowledge of dynamism to strengthen that fluid motion u have goin on. Also, u cud soften some of the areas to make the center piece(s) pop, while toning down the background. Nice job tho I like it

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TwilightAmbiance In reply to kdotx [2008-10-18 03:41:34 +0000 UTC]

I definitely agree with you on softening up some places on this piece. The hot spots generated when first rendering this were tremendous. The final render isn't that much better, although I'll try to do a re-render and see how it looks. Thanks for the critique.

Thanks a lot! The idea came out of nowhere, so I decided to see if I could put it in fractal form.

totallyunmotivated In reply to TwilightAmbiance [2008-10-18 22:23:21 +0000 UTC]

Fractals are awesome (although I don't know how to make them ), especially when you've got an abstract idea. but even if it's not abstract, it's still really cool! I'll check out your gallery real soon!

My critique isn't with the artwork, it's with the artist... he's too hard on himself

This is amazing... truly. For some reason it reminds me of a close-up of guitar knobs on an electric guitar with light rays coming from it... maybe they should make a fractal design fender eh?

TwilightAmbiance In reply to sixwings [2008-10-18 03:44:04 +0000 UTC]

A fractal Fender? I don't even play guitar and I'd want that.

i really like the color choice and trailing designs,
even as it looks mechanical it looks fluid as well

TwilightAmbiance In reply to Rosewood-Jackal [2008-10-18 03:46:04 +0000 UTC]

The blur really balanced out a lot of the edgy shapes that appear here. The first render without it looked very rough and in need of some soft shapes.
