Now we are going to remove some of the background clutter. If we change the top slider of the Julia section from 2.875 to 1.725 another dramatic change will occur to the original image. But there is much more we can do in a short amount of time that will make the tweak much better. This minor adjustment has completely changed the point of view of the image. By clicking on the Scale slider and changing the settings from 3.8 to 3.65 we get a completely different view of the image. With a tiny little adjustment to the MengerIFS formula the entire image has changed. So let’s play around with a few things and see what happens. Not only can you zoom in and out, you can roam around in the image, change settings that affect the image itself such as scale, julia, far plane and more. There are so many easy adjustments you can do to change the image you want to tweak from the navi window. So just changing the color of an image and calling it a tweak is not justified. This is the most powerful feature of Mandelbulb 3D regardless if you are tweaking an image or not. Our first step is to open the Navigator and look around! Navi Window Without changing any of the formula’s or rearranging them there is still lots we can do to affect the image itself. The formula’s for this image are as follows: MengerIFS, Amazing Box, Amazing Box, Folding Int Pow and Bulbox. wX0LD0Dv0Av048NEv1ovYqVC4icvMwQbKdkPfTjm3h/uPcUIr1F1JzNmR/oyW11A9QJ7YeDGvJx/pIL G….x/…i9…w….2E….PkFtDBOvnzmUAbYi1lB0EnXX35aOrsv9T9SD0RyMxzgPTOyUCQtwj Let’s start with this image as an example and go through the different steps to tweak it. So, in the next few minutes you will not only hear me rant about this topic but visually see what the term tweak means to me! Mine is just one voice and not many people will totally agree with my explanation of the term but it is something that needs to be discussed in my humble opinion. If you were to ask ten artist about what the word tweak means to them, you would probably get ten different answers. Then there are artist like myself that tweak other artist work, challenge artist to tweak as a means of learning as well as tweaking many of my own images. Some think that tweaking someone else’s work is cheating. The joy of the tweak is something that many artist are pretty passionate about.
