A Mandelbulb 3D Composite & Parameters to Share

This was an experiment in using the Z mid, Z start, and Z end, tabs.  I changed them for different looks.  Then in the 3D Nav window I played with the Julia co-ordinates.  Along with the formula tabs.

The backround was taken from a Flame fractal I rendered in JWildfire.
I often like mixing the programs and putting them together.

This one is a composite of Mandelbulb 3D, JWildfire, and some Brushes by Obsidian Dawn for the space effects.
Note these are 'free' programs.  But if you are using them truly you should consider donating to the authors who have done such hard work!

I used a textured map color to get the metallic lines in the Mandelbulb.

I also worked with the 'far plane' 'tab' found in the 3D Nav window at the bottom to 'isolate' this portion of the fractal.  It isn't hard, if you want less of the backround fractal to show you reduce your far plane until you get the results you want.
If I am doing a fractal for a composite, I usually isolate the image.

I compiled them in Adobe CS2.

Here are the parameters for sharing.

I have taken these params and have come of with several useful versions to 'create' with.
Happy Mandel-bulbing!
