Description
Ultrafractal 3.02, Apophysis2beta3
The emblem of the fighting Uruk'hai, the elite orc army bred by the traitor, Saruman the White - keeper of the Eye of Orthanc and rumored to wield one of the three rings of power granted to the race of men by the Eldar of Valinor upon the sundering of the West from the lands of the Valar. Orcs being the failed attempt by Morgoth, in his vanity, to emulate the creation of Elves, Men and Dwarvenkind by Illuvitar. But that is another story...

Amazing composition. I like everything about it, Rick.
Excellent image!! :)
Great image, Rick! It looks like it just came out of a museum!
Wonderful image, paragon5 is right, it's museum quality.
Excellent image, Rick! Agree with Keith, voroni textures are superb, and the flames give this an electric lighting, as if lit from within! Wonderful texture and depth to the central spiral! Super job!
This is well put together. I like the way that you have used the flame as a texture instead of a subject. The voroni coloring is also well placed. Well done.
RIGHT ON RICK!Great pic!Looks like an awesome image that would be emblazoned on a shield of some kind!Hmmmmmmm!That gives me an idea!LOL:):):)
Excellent.
Great emblem...i realy like it.... ey..must put it in my shield???lol.
This is outstanding!
in which museum it was stolen??? ;-) fantastic work!!!!
Thank you for taking this suggestion. And a very nice result!
This is a really fantastic image, Rick. Stone and shape is wonderful, but it's tha original idea that make this image original, and you a great artist!
everything that describes LOTR atmospheres get my attention.. but this values everyone's :)
Another Really "different" look, Rick!! ALthough I am not familiar with this story, it damn sure is fascinating and fits perfectly with the image!
Stunning, Rykk. Perfect marriage of fractal and flame, and perfect for the "neverending story" of Ring. Thank you.
Aus welchen Museum hast du das gestohlen? Ich bin wirklich begeistert von diesem Bild, es kommt sofort zu meinen Favoriten.
A very nice one.
Excellent composition and combination of flame, textures and colours. Wonderful work!
As magical as the story!
Breathtaking! This is really so very fine!
An excellent graphic (and a future reference [:)]...) Wonderfull texture work - as always.
Another masterpiece! I like the way you made the 3-D effect, as well as the colors and textures. You do such amazing work! Impressive! :^)
Wonderful composition.
I wondered when you'd do this.Was worth the wait!
A truly magnificent piece. Not only because of my love of Tolkien, but because the image itself is delicious. Wonderful texture and unique composition. Congrats!
Most excellent and interesting image.
Wow, amazing picture! Would make a neat Tatoo design
Who knew that Orcs had such a facility for Fractal Art? Perhaps there Elvish origins are not entirely erased.
This is one of the best fractals I've seen! And the works on this site are awesome! GREAT design and color/texture. I honestly can't say enough about it.
