So, before i enter this forum, before Freespace 2 got my permanent attention, i did some art, yes, im a artists, but i do not know how to draw properly concrete concepts like animals, tree or human beings , i am a abstract man. But, im mainly a digital artist, wich means i do some nice computer arts with  programs (see my DeviantArt here: http://krictic.deviantart.com/), but im specialised in one pecific program,called Apohysis (See the offical site here http://apophysis.org/), with this little wonder, i can do incredible pieces of abstract art based on fractals and flames.

So i did some pieces like this:

http://krictic.deviantart.com/art/Flame-114-298356934
or this

Anyone messed up with this program yet?

obs: if you wanna try, i strongly reccomend you use the Apophysis 7x, the original rpogram is on a permanent hiatus and lack many useful  functionatities. Link here: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&global=1&q=Apophysis+7x#/d27ukur

Not my kind of art, but pretty sweet all the same.

  Sweet, I bet one of those is gonna be my wallpaper soon.

That looks insanely complex to achieve, I like that second one.. like a fenix

Not so much, only requires practice, its easier than FRED. xD

you should try it sometime.

Does it do 3d fractals?

I once wondered about a backdrop in Freespace using a 3d fractal, combined with actual set pieces made in 3d software.

I have literally zero time for those wet dreams of mine though.

Nah, I've learned my lesson already.
It's better to focus on a single feat and improve it a lot than be low-average in every other skill.

For 3d fractals, you can use another program called Mandelbulb 3D.

its a little difficult to use, but can create beaultiful images.

Those look really cool. The first one has a really nice William Morris feel to it.

William who? D:

There's a 3D "hack" for apophysis, which is included in the version Madrox linked.

Also @Madrox, there've been a fair number of apophysis threads here over the years.  Do a search for em and see some cool images.

Yes, you are right,but the Mandelbulb 3D actually make s them solid. Apophysis cannot do this.

Seriously? nice, i will do it! =D

You should be doing nebula or galaxy generation...

Ah, that's a pretty significant difference.  I'll have to check this out!

I had a thread showcasing some of the stuff I did with Apophysis way back when, but yours beat the crap out of mine.

Dont say that!
That Esmerald of yours was especially good!

Thanks for that, it does do incredible stuff! The only problem I have is to go from an actual idea to the actual formula to use. But for brainstorming it is amazing.
