Edit: I am astounded by the attention this is getting. Did I get featured somewhere?! How did you all find this? :lmao: Whatever the case may be, thanks for all the favs and comments!

I dub this week "render hell week." I first rendered an 8000x4000 version of this and downsampled in photoshop as usual. But it STILL came out just horribly aliased. After another hour or so of test renders, I eventually decided to render the majority of the fractal at 8000x4000, and the top six layers individually at 16000x8000 (re-layering the whole thing in photoshop). So, I dub this the most fine-grained, finicky set of textures I have ever worked with in UF!

And just you wait until you hear about the ordeal of my upcoming apo/chaotica render...

Anyway, I know I do it to myself by being extremely picky. But I guess I think there's something to be said for pushing right up to the boundaries of technical limitations.

It doesn't scream fractal like a lot I see on here. Looks like a really neat surreal painting!

This is amazing. I love the coloring and the composition. It's amazing. I just said that, speechless! I must be doing something wrong with my renders. I guess I will have to go and read about this.

There is such a fine boundary between madness and lucidity .. yet you choose to constantly go there !! ... Just make sure that you avoid the vortex of despair and the chasm of unacceptable perfectionism !!!! ... (Somewhere amongst those words are buried Perles of wisdom).

Keep Going ... When your a bit more tired ... In the small hours .. Art arrives.
