before I get my hopes up is this a filter or a combination effect?

those are just cool, steve. did some of those come about as a result of working on nebulae? cause, i can see that if you diffused some of those and reduced the opacity, they'd make pretty good gas clouds.
If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

All generated from a filter with no external image.....noise used to create the large forms.....and more noise used to create the texturing.....shooting for oil paint relief effects..... smile:)

No.....they came from re-working/improving some of my existing filters.....going to re-submit them under a new name for a clean slate.....I don't want them to go back to "LU Land" again..... smile;) smile:D

I have some good stuff to help with the nebulaes.....and I will share them with everyone.....but I want to clean up my existing filters first..... smile:)

The first two look like they could be based upon fractals.....but if you look closely at the shapes, you can start to recognize the "perlin" in them..... smile;) smile:)

I did use some fractal base patterns on some previous samples.....made with the freebie program 'Apophosis'..... smile:devil:

those are good, steve. the shapes are a bit odd, but love the glass look and the variation through reflection look.

Hey Craig, thanks for being the president and only member of my fan club..... smile:| ..... smile:dgrin: LOL..... Just kidding......I'm in one of those moods today...... smile:)

Believe it or not, there is no refraction used in any of that glass.....it's all profile gradient and curve work..... smile:devil:

You lika da metal, eh??? It's one of many that grew from my earlier "Alien Metallix" filters..... smile:)

You're just saying that because you want me to use your filters..... smile:| ..... smile:dgrin:

Hmmmmmm.....I almost have what I want.....flat HDRI mirror panaels with glass borders like in the upper right hand corner.....but have to do some more isolation work to get all the edges like that.....

i like that first of the last three best. nice sort of abstract shattered window. the chrome frame one is cool, too.

Ah, so my challenge is to improve and get you to like my "Glass-Framed Abstract HDRI Panel Mirrors" effect (#2), eh??? Okay, I'll take that challenge..... smile;) smile:D

All of my glass, chrome, and mirror effects sampled in the last few pages have all been done with just curve-manipulated profile gradient construction.....not a single blur or refraction component was used in any one of them.....so they are all very fast..... smile:devil:

I've gotta give credit to CorvusCroax for getting me into it from this string.....discovered all kinds of new and very useful things by trying to figure it out without using any blurs..... smile:devil:

Hey, those are really cool! I like the alien glass bits in particular. Hope you submit them or post them on the forum here.

Btw: It looks like you have a lot of blended mid-tone 'valleys' on those. You might want to check out some of the complexity you can get out of using the high pass at 100 trick (which I learned from one of Kochubey's filters). It does fun stuff with those mid-tone valleys. http://www.filterforge.com/upload/for...%204.ffxml

Hey, I'm going to get you to love that one!!! smile;) smile:D Take a close look at the glass borders in the upper right-hand corner of #2 (abstract HDRI mirror panels).....that's the direction that I'm going with it......I think it's going to look really cool when I get it done..... smile:)

I will.....just give me a little time to do some more refining on them.....I'm also trying to clean up all my LU filters at the same time.....my total filter count has been slowly but surely dropping each week.....combining and improving them for re-submission under a new name for a clean usage slate..... smile;) smile:)

Yes......and thanks for that!!! smile:) I haven't forgotten about creating realistic cracks, tree forms, lightning, etc.....that's a challenging problem that I would like to find a solution to as well..... smile:devil:

Ironically, every one of your posted endeavors is about something that I've been wondering about myself......so please don't stop putting them up!!! smile:)
