Fractal Abstract & Brushing - Same As Sig

OK.. It's not exactly like the sig, but I tried to get it close.. Probably needs some more work, but I think it's still pretty cool.. :)

Ok.. This isn't too bad!

Its a bit grainy tho, try to work on that. There's overall to much "fractal", try getting rid of some of it and fading it into the black.

Good work overall tho.

Yeh.. Sorry about the grainy parts.. I actually had an update, but I forgot to post it up.. :p Here's the latest update:

*It's still a little bit grainy, but I think it's better than it was.. :p

OK.. The following was rendered at a much higher quality.. Lemme know if it's any better:

OK.. Everything's been smoothed out now.. :) No more noise (I think).. :)

looks very good to me, maybe a bit more of the light effect comming out of the center point, like light shining out into space. kind of like light shining through a window. but the colours and everything else look good to me.

Thanks.. I put a lot of work into this one trying to get it as perfect as possible.. :) I really like the outcome.. I just hope that type of "design perfectness" doesn't stop with this wallpaper.. :p The last one I did wasn't as good and that worries me a little.. :p

you do that with brushes?

Very nice wfc! Good to see ppl working on projects other than sigs.

I used Apophysis to create the "abstract" or "lines", and then brought it into Photoshop CS2 and added some effects.. After that, I browsed the web and downloaded over 100 brushes.. After choosing the ones I thought would be perfect for this abstract, I started brushing away.. I used white at first, the went into the Hue/Saturation settings and did some colorizing.. After I got the colors I liked, I fooled around in the blending options to get the effect I wanted. After all of that, I applied the Topaz Denoise filter to smoothe it all out.. :)

And that's pretty much the story of how it came to be into existance.. :p
