Description Ultra Fractal 5.04

I tried so hard to colour this one differently but I could only use my classic "separate shape and colour" technique - which has way too many flaws and MUST be either improved or changed. Anyhow, the jewels didn't come out that bad at all, in the end.

See also my collection of UF classics .

I got a personal feature from #FractalDreams in their blog, and this fractal was included! Check it here !

very nice, I love it,

You may know this technique already,... but one of the best ways I like to add color to my pieces is to use the coloring "iteration". I have sent along an example for you . Layer one is the stucture..... layer two is the iteration layer..... and then I added a simple texture layer.


If you know all this already.... just ignore this message

Ah yes, Iteration colouring! I have used it at times, but I am no expert in it. I'm still working on that. I tried it for this fractal too, but I couldn't get a palette that was any better, or less flat, than the gradient I have now. Darn! :mad:
Thank you very much for the reminder and the kind parameter share. It's always welcome!

P. S.: good luck for the Artist of the Month issue on FracStract! Hope you win

You're most welcome. thanks for wishing me the best in the "artist of the month". However, I've already had the pleasure. It would be nice to feature another fractal artist. We have so many talented artists (such as yourself) that deserve it!
