Title: Nautilius (a question about shape) Post by: MindsEye on January 31, 2012, 04:27:53 PM Is it possible to create a Nautilus Shell (which is a natural fractal a.k.a. Phi Spiral) with Mandelbulb 3d current set of formulae?
If not would it be crass of me to ask for such a formula in MB3D format.. I am hopeless with such things, but the mathematical formula can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_spiral (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_spiral) Thanks in advance for any help!

I am planning something ... But I should study in this period. Wait ... :-\ Title: Re: Nautilius (a question about shape) Post by: MindsEye on January 31, 2012, 07:59:09 PM Great! I will keep an eye here for when you are ready.. Thanks again! |
