Apophysis 7X and a little photoshop for curves adjustments.
Can you see the question mark?

So... I and ^n8iveattitude1 decided to finally fight this Apophysis monster called Xaos. We rolled up our sleeves ( [link] )and tried to put a tile pattern into a spherical gasket... and after a few hours of "omg it's a mess! omg it's so ugly!" we made it


This one is a elliptic splits pattern filling a spherical gasket. Bonus: it's 3d ! You can check a small preview of the 2d version here [link]

Heartfelt thanks to ^n8iveattitude1 for all the fun and for rendering these flames for me !!!
fullview please!
