Mandelbulb 3D Tutorial Master Training v2.3 

 

This list is not the end all, be all at this point, but over a period of time, as I add new finds and other tutorials get published I will continue to add to it so that it does become the authoritative list of Mandelbulb 3D tutorials on the internet! So, if you view this PDF file in June, it could be a completely different document in November. You should look for the newest version on the FaceBook group Mandelbulb Maniacs in the file section. It is my intention to start with tutorials for the beginner and progress through to the latest cutting techniques and tips! However, keep in mind the number of available tutorials if

you find something that does not look in the right place. It should be mentioned that many of the tutorials listed here were written for an earlier version of Mandelbulb 3D than the current version you are using. However, the parameters, techniques and formulas used in them should work flawlessly in your software. Of course there may be exceptions to the rule but very few. Images and a number system will be used throughout whenever possible. These tutorials can definitely improve your understanding of the software and the settings required to create some really awesome fractals. Let’s get started.
