Tropicana I (full color version)

Thought there was nothing wrong with sharing the original color version of Tropicana I.
Also, I´d appreciate to know which version you like the most.

Main figure is a Cinema 4D render; I blended to the original a couple of fractal images created with Apophysis in Photoshop; there´s also a bit of digital painting.
(CINEMA 4D is a commercial, cross-platform, high-end 3-D graphics application).

Notorious Tropicana nightclub, the template from which Las Vegas was made, is a world known cabaret and nightclub in Havana, Cuba.
It was launched in 1939 at Villa Mina, a six-acre (24,000 m²) suburban estate with lush tropical gardens in Havana’s Marianao neighborhood. It inmediately became a magnet for international celebrities, musicians, beautiful women, and gangsters. The long list of stars who flocked to the Tropicana included Édith Piaf, Ernest Hemingway, Jimmy Durante, Pier Angeli, Maurice Chevalier, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Marlon Brando.
Headliners included Xavier Cugat, Paul Robeson, Yma Sumac, Carmen Miranda, Nat King Cole, Josephine Baker and Liberace. Heralded as a “Paradise Under the Stars,” the Tropicana became known for its showgirls, conga sounds and flashy, spectacular productions.
The Tropicana continues to operate with very few changes to this day, attracting tourists to its elaborate floorshows.
