Thankyou Msltoe

Msltoes Riemann Bulb Variation 2

I could not easily code  "maxnorm = ((double) (abs(i+j) % 12))/11.0;" to fit with Mandelbulber's bailout/termination, so instead I placed a primitive sphere inside. I was confused.

Fast, zoomable and renders well  :)

Eggs-cellent! As you can see in my second picture, since the main transformation is conformal, you are free to use any terminating shape (sphere, spike, cross, etc.) if Mandelbulber will let you ;)

@msltoe. In Mandelbulber we have bailout based on       r = sqrt(z.x * z.x + z.y * z.y + z.z * z.z + w * w);    therefore I needed x,y,z components to feed in Remove my confusion

 Out of interest,   what was initial i & j in your formula?     I was assuming it might have been  i = (int)round(x);  

I like your hybrid. It adds some texture to the sym4 mandelbulbs.
The variables, maxnorm, i and j are just used for coloring. They can be set to round(x), round(z) at the beginning or 0,0.

Tweaked to get inside view without the mess.

Internal view with cut through z axis = 0.0.
