Title: some more Post by: Jesse on January 20, 2010, 01:41:06 AM On top of the Pow2 mandelbulb, i have to add some transparency to see the classic mandelbrot shapes.
And the P3 again, hope you like it. Title: Re: some more Post by: kram1032 on January 20, 2010, 02:33:51 AM nice images :)
Title: Re: some more Post by: Jesse on January 20, 2010, 09:52:13 AM The transparency didnt worked well, so i made additional images with 40 and 100 iterations minimum. DE accuracy set low to get more down to the ground. These small butterflies in the 100it image must be minibulbs. :)

The lower iterations are definitely better looking than the higher ones, unlike in 2D... Title: Re: some more Post by: Jesse on January 20, 2010, 06:25:27 PM Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder ;) But 3D is hardly compareable to 2D because you see only one surface, in 2D this also wouldnt be such an eyecatcher (one line). The first one has not a fixed iteration depth, the surface is estimated when the DE gets lower than a given stop value, independent from the iteration count. That is a very natural approach, i think. I have rendered the last one again with higher accuracy, just wanted to know what happens: |
