Hex-D-Form (series preview)

Nice relief work on all but the last one.....which doesn't seem to fit in with the rest

I like the first and second one a lot. Very nice and unusual.

Thanks everyone

I'm really rather torn on what to do with these filters. I love some of the results, but there are 21 user controls on each of them!

Essentially, there are two copies of the same noise used: one controls the actual deformation of the surface, and the other produces an optional overlay of colors. The scale, stretch, etc... of the two are linked, so the overlay will fit the deformation... but the roughness, contrast, and colors are independent for each one, to allow for a great deal of variation.

I thought about including controls for the offset and shape-size within the kaleidoscope component, but that would add 3 more controls to each one, and give even less consistent results with the randomizer. (Hmm... I suppose I could limit the range of those controls...)

These are actually from 7 different filters, all basically the same, except for the noise type used.

Glad you like them though!

Finally submitted the first of this series, "Hex-D-Form: perlin". Here are some samples...

default:


preset 2:


preset 6:


preset 8:


(The last 2 are about as opposite as it gets: preset 6 is very smooth, and strictly black and white, while preset 8 has a high roughness setting, with a lot of added color in the overlay.)

Thanks

Just submitted number 2 in the series, based on techno noise...

default:


preset 4:


preset 10:


preset 15:


(Just 5 more noise types to go... )

without sounding like a parrot the depth is excellent with these

that last gold one really has a realistic quality, like metal/jewelry/ornamental metal... very nicely done!
