Hi! A lot of time far from this forum cause of my teaching job. Now I'd like to show you a couple of renders posted to Mandelbrot Fractal Art Contest.
For the first one the workflow starts with Chaoscope or Apophysis renders. They are two free progs making you explore the world of fractals, attractors and flames. Then I used one of these renders as displacing map to model a multisubdivided plane in layout and the same map over the color channel and an alpha map over transparency. Other Apophysis images were used in layout as textured background, layered with photoshop like fusion options. Minor postprocess was done in Photoshop.
For the second one I used just Lightwave and Aurora plugin. It acts over a null object as an attractor generator, making an array of particles. Using hypervoxel over this null, and tuning colors, stretching values and sizeness on a 'speed' value generated by plugin, I obtained this kind of shapes.
---------
yup! I'm sorry for my long long speech!

Many thanks for your interest!
