HDR 3D MAnDelBulb by MANDELWERK

On request, an image of the 3-dimentional mandelbulb print I held in my hands on "The Mandelbulb Sect" [link]

This is a HDR-snapshot, I am not so satisfied with the result, was going to take a better photo before posting here, but, until I take a better one...

Very cool! I cant wait to try this. I appreciate you posting it. I have seen this printing done on the web very cool stuff. You can buy your own printer if you can afford one. Or you can make your own, microstereo lithography [link] and another example, this one would work better I think, [link] the object is being pulled from the polymer.
Then there is this version which you make and it will in turn make the parts to make another machine you can give away. [link]

HDR here is linked to photography, there's also HDR in 3d sw.
Basically using a 3d scene one would create a big sphere with HDR image mapped as a texture on the sphere and putting the object inside.
It would be similar to the set-up of your photo.
With GI we have light from the object itself.
HDR and GI can work together.
