wow your fracton 3d out else than google fractal fishing even... should broad my only one butterfly did calculated it again last night... 2012/8/16 Mike Frazier <fractonorg@gmail.com>
Today's post is a 3D image of a Chebyshev fractal. The Chebyshev method is similar to the Halley method and is used to iteratively solve for roots of equations. The fractal is colored based on how quickly the root is found. The method is from Computers, Pattern, Chaos, and Beauty by Clifford Pickover, page 277. It was challenging to make a good model of this fractal since it has very thin walls and deep cuts. It took Fracton 99 hours and 31 minutes to make the model on my 2 core PowerPC Mac Pro. The 3D image is rendered in Cheetah 3D.
Here is a link to a web page with an image:

I will also list the PAR file here for people collecting them from the mail list:
