1-180115 Free Tierazon Fractal Tutorial-Long (180104 start)

Today, we’re building on the tutorial from 180104.  It would be a good idea to go back to it before trying this one.

We’re going to delve deeper over many lessons, looking at Color1 filters!

We will build on each lesson.  This is the fourth one.

Open Tierazon.

Your regular Mandelbrot will come up.   Read the tips below, and we will continue on.

If you wish to work on a larger image, right click on image and choose xy size, and enlarge from there.  Close out with ok.

REMEMBER TIPS:  If your image resizes back to the original small size, just right click, choose x-y size, and resize and ok.

If your image turns into a series of lines or horrible patterns, it may be because it’s too big.  (Sometimes it will be just a solid color; and may be fixed or not by doing this.) To fix, right click, choose xy size, and then ok; and it will redraw properly.

If you want to use FD options, you MUST use filters 3 first, above Dimension Variant.

If you want to use the color box, you must reduce your image size to 320x240 first.  You can change back (resize) when you’re done coloring. 

You can draw or zoom in off your page and move around your fractal in this manner.  If you want to zoom out, right click your image, and choose fractal parameters and take a number or two off the front of magnify.

To reduce noise, try changing bailout from 4 to 1 (right click and choose fractal parameters) and m-set max from 128 to a lower number.  Reduce by 10’s until you get a feel for what you like.  If you do too much noise reduction, go back in and increase m-set max.

And NOW … on with this tutorial.

Close the standard Mandelbrot.

Open fractal 3-1a-25.  This is where we left off last time.

Colors1,13.  3-1a-25.

Now ... Colors1, 14. 3-1a-26.

Colors1, 15.  3-1a-27.  Yep; terrific.

Colors1, 19.  3-1a-28.

Colors1, 20.  3-1a-29.  Yes!

Colors1, 21.  3-1a-30.

Colors1, 22.  3-1a-31.  Beautiful as well.

Colors2, 23.  3-1a-32. 

Colors2, 25.  3-1a-33.

Colors2, 26.  3-1a-34.

Reduced smaller again.

Colors2,

27 nice

28 nice

34; getting a lot of detail, almost too much.

Right click, choose fractal parameters, bailout from 4 to 1, m-set max from 128 to 80 is nicer, take m-set down from 80 to 40. Too much.  From 40 to 60. Looks good.  3-1a-35.

Stopping here for today.  We’ll pick up with this one for 1-18-18, Thursday.
