Title: Fractals from 3D Models Post by: Flowmotion on October 22, 2013, 01:50:41 PM Hi
Noob here so apologies if this is an easy one. Is there any software that generates fractals using 3D Models as base shapes? For example taking a tree or bicycle and generating the fractal using those shapes instead of the ones that are mathematically generated by the formulas. Hope i´ve made myself clear - i´ve seen software that lets you attach models to other models surfaces and generating complex shapes eg. http://www.code-artists.de/ but was wondering if there was some way to do this in a Fractal program. Many Thanks in advance Jacques Title: Re: Fractals from 3D Models Post by: Nahee_Enterprises on October 22, 2013, 02:47:02 PM Hi Noob here so apologies if this is an easy one.

Many Thanks in advance Jacques I am unaware of anything that would take "ordinary" 3-D object models and then create fractals from such. There are ways to do something similar with photographs, and any 2-D image, but actual 3-D objects is altogether different. :D Title: Re: Fractals from 3D Models Post by: blob on October 22, 2013, 03:58:49 PM Incendia lets you use STL models as base shapes and it's bundled with another program called Geometrica you might also find interesting. See Incendia doc for how to use.
