That part was no problem.
But I had no luck getting images to do things like you've seen before. Like one of my favorites:
Each "slice" in that image is what I am calling an "Orbit Trap" and hoping it's the correct phrase!
With the new feature in Chaos Pro, I just get a tiled image with a Black Brot over the front.
I must be missing something...
Well, of course I'm not able to reproduce your Lissa, so I replaced Lissa with Jennifer Aniston.
Here is an example of what I've achieved by playing around a few minutes:
Such images are easy to obtain: You only need to play around with transformations. Here is the example parameter entry (Copy&Paste into ChaosPro, but you need to replace Jennifer with Lissa, of course!):

I just chose the tab "Mapping" and added a transformation. You may download/import the UltraFractal formulas. Those from Damien M. Jones are my favorites, so I chose dmj-NovaJulia from dmj.ctr.
As you can see, there are hundreds (thousands) of transformations when having downloaded them from the UF database. A wide field to play with...
But it depends on what you want to achieve.
Better (more fantastic) results could be obtained by writing a formula and coloring not by using the gradient, but by using a pixel from Lissa
Kind regards,
Martin
