hi everyone!

i need to make a 32000x8000px version of one of my works

http://www.markusmooslechner.com/plastique.html[/url]

(this has been done with a fractal renderer and ps)

now, at this size the fractal software takes several weeks!! to render - so i thought: perhaps c4d or a plugin could do similar web-structures? does anyone have an idea?

looking forward to reading your postings ...

thanx

markus

hi

you can simulate this kind of structure in sevelar ways - but no one of them will be exactly the same - I mean you can't get the same visual effect with other software than your fractal generator. If I have to do that I will use cinema and ps:

- prepare (in PS) bitmap with one line (you can experiment with the height and width) and the alpha bitmap for it.
- convert your work to grayscale and use storm (galaxy.c4d in the examples folder) or use cloner object with shader effector (based on your converted work)

render that work with several various parameters and mix them in PS (with displace filter).

or use Adobe Flash with some fractal generatro - after making swf print it into pdf (Adobe flash paper or postscript printer) and use Illustrator to prepare it for PS and in PS mix it.

I hope it helps or show you the ways.

btw: in ditools was/is fractal shader.
