Title: Hello, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Post by: Lueb on December 24, 2010, 05:44:13 PM
Hello all, I am mostly a ZBrush artist who has considered lately the value of adding some fractal objects to my recipes of compositions.  My question would be: if I mostly want to generate some simple 3D objects for export to a program in the form of ".obj" files mostly, what would be a good suggestion for that program?

It doesn't have to have all the bells and whistles, as I am an artist, not a mathmatician.  I am humbled by the intellectual genius found by those on this forum, and respect their talents, but I am more of an instinctive thinker and artist where formulas occur in my head and I have no other way to translate them than by way or art. I want to take some fractal objects and do "artistic" interpretations.  Thanks!

Hi Lueb, welcome to the forum! You can find something on 3D meshes in the 3D fractal generation board. It's not a common possibility in most fractal programs, since most use ray tracing techniques (and that seems to be incompatible with the creation of meshes if I understand correctly). I think Incendia can export 3D meshes, so that might be worth a try.

Much appreciated for the quick reply, Madman! I will check out that avenue, thanks.
