Wow! Thank you much T, the directions for Technica you offered are excellent. I tried the first one, got some interesting results but I need to experiment some more. I’ll try the second one after I post this.

 

I’m still not activated at FracFan but you have some great resources there. You have a link there which you call the “Virtual one stop shop” which is just great. I downloaded all of TaraRoys’ tutorials from the advance and intermediate section there and she is absolutely fantastic. Not to mention that she is really down and dirty mathematically involved with her art.

 

To me, that’s a breath of fresh air when you can get someone who is not only good at their art but is able to quantify the work as well while making you understand the concepts and she’s absolutely brilliant at such a young age. My hat’s off to her.

 

In any case, she has a tutorial called “Weights and Chaos” which basically talks about the transform weights and how they influence the flames and their appearances. Many of my flame sharpness questions were answered there in more detail. The gist of which as T said, takes some flame tweaking not only with scaling but also with transform weight distribution since weight is attributed to a sphere of influence between transforms from what I can gather from her tutorial. It’s absolutely a must read and I highly recommend it as I do all her other tutorials.

 

I’m finding many brilliant and talented minds in this art niche and I’m loving it. I’ll be back with other questions and hopefully some answers to my own questions.
