It's a Jesus model and some other base shapes in a 3D Kleinsian fractal.

Are we having one of those conversation where I have no idea what you are talking about? Ok, I do have Apophysis, so I have the general idea. It's a wonderful result!

So you have an idea what I was talking about

You do 3d Models so I thought you might be interested.
Thanks a lot to the last sentence

Thanks. Octane can imitate camera film and DOF very well

Yeah I think best and quickest renderer there is.

Oops forgot, it runs on Nvidia Graphics cards. You need one with loads of VRAM and CUDA cores.

My machine is a gamer but a little outdated maybe. It was 2GB/Ram but I doubled it 2 years ago.
Maybe not enough though.
NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 405
AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual Core Processor. 4GB/Ram

Does it call for a quad processor?

Blender and 3D Max and so on don't need a high powered Graphics card. You need to separate between modelling program and renderer. Max, Maya XSI and so can take renderers that aren't packaged with the program.
Vray [link] is another good one based on CPU rendering.

The disadvantage they have they are slow. A GPU render is quicker and interactive. But it depends on your memory how much you get in. Ideally you need a graphics card for the OS and one for renderig and the motherboard that supports two graphics cards.

I am not sure if your card has CUDA cores.Couldn't find anything.

An older GTX is enough .. I have a 470 but also ran it on a 8800

You can start with CPU, but GPU is less frustrating.

I started off in 1994 with POV Ray.. [link] it's also free.

Go with blender if you want free and CPU.

Great! Thanks for the help Nils Likely saved me a lot of frustration with the wrong programs
I'm not sure when or if I will ever find the time anyway but who knows. Its just take a notion and do it I guess
I always plan to get into fractals too but haven't really found the time yet.
