Description
Ultra Fractal 5.04*** Prints made with a 2048x2048 size render *** For a higher-sized or higher-resolution print, please contact me ***
Just because I can't sit still (and also because I needed a break from my current real life occupations), I kept fractaling some more and started the second lesson of the masking course. It focuses primarily on frames. Here's my first assignment!

Lovely, I like the texture and the subtle colours.

Nice one! Like the texturing...
And I like the way the fractal doesn't care too much about the boundaries set by the frame...
(need to learn more about texturing, do you have any tips, Alice?)
Cheers, Bernhard

I like fractals that go beyond the frame. I rarely ever make frames contain them.
As of texturing, I surely have some hints for you!

You can download my pack, for example, and you'll see how I make textures. Basically, for most of them, I use a Pixel formula and the SFBMII colouring. In Convolution and Absolute Convolution mode, it gives very nice results - have a look at my textures to see what it does.
Or, you can start from just about any gnarl formula and go with it.
The fundamental rule of texturing: use greyscale images, and play with merge modes and opacity. That's how they work best. I personally use overlay a lot for texture layers; at times even hard light or luminance, or soft light if I want a smoother effect.
I hope it's enough. Don't hesitate to ask for more

Thank you very much, Alice !!!
Time to play around and experiment...

Thank you so much!
"Balance" has balance.

And you did a great job! I love the frame look and how the fractal is bursting out of the frame! Also the almost monochromatic-ness is great! Nice job!

It was initially thought of as monochrome, in fact! Green was added later.

Well I do think the green is a nice touch! It really makes the whole thing pop. Grey on grey would have been a bit TOO monochromatic so the green was a nice idea.

I tried complete monochrome too, and went to your same conclusion. Glad you share this idea!

You know, I make experiments so often that I even wonder if I have a style at all.
Thank you very much

What a good compliment, thank you!
I often do the same for yours too

Ma questa Γ¨ la tavola imbandita per un matrimonio!
Ci sono i piatti di fine porcellana, i bicchiedi di cristallo, le posate d'argento, tovaglia e tovaglioli di fiandra grigio perla e qualche petalo di bucaneve sparso qua e la!
Perdonami, se non ho nessun consiglio o suggerimento tecnico, ma solo le mie impressioni in merito, ma davvero questi frattali, sono meglio di qualsiasi altra cosa per stimolare la fantasia!

Le impressioni per me hanno molto piΓΉ valore dei consigli tecnici, molto spesso! Speravo davvero che un giorno qualcuno sfoderasse un po' di fantasia per dirmi cosa vedeva nei miei frattali, e le tue interpretazioni sono sempre inusuali e accattivanti. Mi dai un grande aiuto, anche se non sembra

Adesso mi monto la testa come la panna sai?????
Grazie a te per gli stimoli!
