I've been working on tons of art stuff for the last year, but couldn't post any of it on here because I wanted it all secret for a big project, but now the big project is doing stuff, in the form of an Inkshares campaign (at WorldsofMEBAR.com), so I ...

thanks for the fav 
Hey there,
I've got some new pieces posted if you care to take a look. I think I am getting a handle on the contrast with each scan.

you are welcome for the fav ... great work here... very crerative. need any patterns to work from? got a few in my gallery you might find useful...Arborieal Grand Hall5 for one
I will keep that in mind. Right now, I don't really trust 3D modeling software, though. I very rarely use raw, CG images (there are couple exceptions).
Several of the major projects in my gallery started as 3D models, then I simply drew them out in pencil. That way, I have full control, I get to smooth out the hard edges, and I get everything consistent.

actually the geometric patterns are made from photographs and then heavily minipuluated by the power of OCD and months of unemployment...The Arborial hall is only a thin slice of a picture I took looking up at a tree limb and a few branchs that were then mirrored and duplicated several times...I did not use a cgi program for any of these (other than the ones that are obviously CGI) The tiles came from a single leaf and and the patterns that I found within it by going deeper into the previous patterns that came before it...in other words analog fractals (if that concept even exists) I have nearly 1,750 of these and I still find others if I look for them...all from one leaf...there's a lot of leafs out there on the ground...(sigh) Being from the same source, these patterns can be used together to form even more complicated patterns.
Wow . . . I had a feeling we weren't really thinking of the same thing when you said "patterns," but that sounds amazing!
I'm going to have to look at your gallery again.
