Just gorgeous Ilian! I can't see how you made it with apop 7 though. I had to delete the darn thing cause it always crashed or disappeared off my screen! I'll stick with 3D hack...lol...Anyway, you've got an excellent piece of work here!
I am thinking this takes quite a bit of time to create. Multiple renders followed by muti-layered work in PS? It is very impressive to me and I would love to know a little more of what goes into work like this.
People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative.

1. Apophysis 7X: render one image. 2. Paste it in Photoshop as layer. 3. In PS: crop the image using Erase Tool in same shape. 4. Make 3D effect using Layer Style/Blending Options/Drop Shadows, Beval and Emboss, Satin, Stroke. 5. Create new layer, based on stroke line. Make it as gold effect, using Layer Styles (Drop Shadows, Beval and Emboss, Color Overlay).
One section of image is ready now. Put all layers in one group. Try again with other renders in Apophysis (steps 1-5 more times) and collect it in final picture. (PS have many 3D groups yet. The limit is your imagination.)
6. Create a little more effects with Color Overlay and lens effect over the screen. 7. Can add more elements (such as orb or cube...) to create optical center of composition.
:) Post the result in caedes.net and collect the VB from 1 to 10 simultaneously :)
