Isolating Structures In MB3DHow to clean up your image background ~
Wow. I haven't done a journal in ages. I thought I would share a little trick for getting a nice clean background when you want to isolate a structure in Mandelbulb 3D. Why? Because sometimes the structures behind the main focus of your image or the main structure are either just small repeats of the main structure, or they are fragmented and in one way or another just not as interesting. Or the background might bury the foreground object in detail or draw attention away from what you really want the viewer to focus on. People strive for a lot of detail, and that's fine, and sometimes it works. But often I find that there's no main focus to frame your point of view. (Edit: I forgot to mention this is made using Mandelbulb 3D version 1.8.2 and I fixed a few typo's!)
Sometimes you're able to focus on the foreground structure through clever use of fog, lights and depth of field settings. Nothing wrong with that either, so this is just another

woah cool, I'd love to try this someday. It always amazes me how fast this technology is evolving. What does the machine print on? I've only ever come across the ones that print on powder in layers in real life.

Very welcome.

Wow. This is insane. I've been wanting to capture 3D fractals for a long time (all the way back to FRACTINT). And using software built to convert medical imaging data into voxels/mesh is brilliant. Obvious in retrospect . . . but not a connection I ever made. Your work is awesome!

Thank a lot for your comments and for the favs
