I'm thinking that an airplant pilot flying above this landscape would become dizzy and perhaps a little sick to his stomach...

Strange and interesting effect.

But whats the point, what can you use this method for in a "real" world render? What did you learn from doing it mhaze, that you can apply in another use? Just asking.

My thought: for surreal imagery (think Salvador Dali) this might be the very thing.

I'm working on a pic now which has this as its base(though you could never tell from the final image!). It provides a good base structure to build on. If you want to go into fantasy or SF so much the better. I'll post a version in images. Mick

@Mhaze. Thanks for using my idea. I am not an artist, but a programmer with a mathematical background,so I use TG2 for keeping
my math and programming skills alive.

Interesting: Mogn sounds like Mogno which is how Mahogany is called in Portuguese and the image really seems like a tree bark.
