As always, I zoomed out first. I then changed MengerIFS (a transform formula) to Gear2IFS and tweakeda bit... Only to get a lot of nothing:
Those are only three examples of many... So after an hour or so of frustration, I did my last resort move... Reset the parameters of all the formulae and tweaked that some more:
That third image was me changing from alternate to decombinate mode, in order to "untangle" heliStairs from the other two ... And then when I framed the fern-shape like this, things started looking up:
After trying to combine the helix stairs with the fern somehow, eventually a random colour change put me in mind of those old biology sketches you see around sometimes.
I'm very happy with the end result! Sometimes one just needs to tone down the crazy =)
