Passion Flower with Mandelbub

[Clior13]

Hi

I'd like to know how to make a Passion Flower   like this one with Mandelbulb.I am now using the latest version Mandelbulb3Dv179.

Thank you for your help

It's not so easy definitely! Anyway try with TrifoliumIFS, and polyfolding... and some luck

What is going to be difficult here is that you have several different orders of symmetry in your flower: 3, 4, about 70, and 10. That's going to be difficult to combine them all.

Generally speaking, the main problem when playing with 3D fractals is that you rely most of the time on luck and exploration! This is extremely difficult to replicate an existing shape, except if that's a simple one, or some shape for which you already know the recipe.

IMHO, the best way to enjoy fractals is to do tests, explorations, discoveries, not to try to reproduce precisely something you have in mind.

Anyway Mandelbulb is not ideal to reproduce realistic flowers, try Apophysis or Jwildfire

I saw in your gallery artists from this community who have succeeded to make  trees ...

I have found a mandelbulb flower here but I really wonder the parameters
