And since I don't have any more previous work mandalas to post, every Monday will from now on bring you a new, freshly-made Mandala =)
Such is the case for "Ashflake" ... I actually set out with the intention of making a _snow_flake, and I will get to that in the future, but these colours were just speaking to me today.

The creation process:
It's getting late so I'm going to make this brief. I started this with the parameters of Pomegrandala where you can see much of the process I use for making mandalas.
After reaching satisfaction where shape was concerned (above), I started going through images to use as colourmaps, and found this glorious beauty, which gave me the idea for the theme-change as well (from snowflake to ashflake):
The thing is, in Mandelbulb 3D itself, I couldn't settle on any one set of colours as The One. So I saved several large pngs and combined them in photoshop, putting layers on top of each other and making good use of the eraser:
I'm looking forward to doing all sorts of "flakes" ... A snowflake, a glowflake, maybe even a crowflake? o.O ...
Thank you for your upvote 💖

You've been popping up in my Ginabot notifications all day ;P .. Thank you. Will check your blog out.
Beware though, your copy/paste approach is frowned upon by most, even with the original bit in the front. Might want to create a signature instead.
