Fractalman93's Digital Art

My participation in the Artify threads in the dslreports.com Digital Imaging forum has occasionally inspired me to show my darker side. Here are some examples. Georgetown Steps (Bloody Edit) Park Bench (Eyes In The Dark Edit) Greenhouse (Horror Film Edit) Children On Beach (Creepshow Edit) Wasp (Alien Edit) I did not take the original photos from which these were made. However, all "artification" was done by me. I did not indicate the steps I took to create these, but I would be happy to answer specific questions. Read Full Story

Today, I thought I'd share another handful of fractals with you. These were all done with Iterations back in 2000 and 2001. Alien Sport To me, this looks like an alien kicking something. Hence, the name Alien Sport. Obsidian Gamers out there might be familiar with the PC game called Obsidian. Unfortunately, it came out just after Myst and did not receive the attention that it should have received. The graphics and game play are far superior to the original release of Myst. This fractal reminded me of something that could be created by nanobots. Since nanobots created the Obsidian universe, I gave it ... Read Full Story

Some Chaoscope fractals that I did: Bird, Perch & Chair It might be hard to believe, but the only editing that I did to this fractal was changing the background. I changed it from a solid color background to a "cloud" effect. It was one of those odd twists of fate that the fractal itself resembled a bird, its perch, and a chair. I was quite impressed with it and thought that the green and white "cloud" background gave it a touch of harmony. DeanScape I call this fractal DeanScape because it resembles part of Roger Dean's work for the Beginnings album cover. An ... Read Full Story

My interest in fractals began close to 20 years ago. I started with a basic, yet powerful program called Fractint . At the time, this program didn't allow for much customization and parameter adjustment. So, I searched the web and found Iterations . It used to be freeware, but Stephen Ferguson has done many other programs since and now charges for downloading. I have also used Chaoscope ; a 3D strange attractor renderer. Much more recently I took to fractal landscapes using Terragen 0.9.43 . The 2 main reasons that I am still interested in fractals 20 years later is because I like both ... Read Full Story

Now that Saga has a new lead vocalist, I find the final product for this edition of Turning A Digital Photo Into Digital Art a perfect way to celebrate! The main component of this "artified" digital photo is a photo taken by Cabana . It was quite nicely cleaned up by Camare . The photo was taken in Berlin and the prominent damaged building in the foreground is Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church. The next component can also be found in Germany. It's Einstein Tower located in Potsdam, Germany. Germany is significant with regard to Saga because that is where they have the largest fan ... Read Full Story
