Infrared metal: a crimson chrome vortex with electric blue seams
Infrared metal spins a Vortex with 6 folds, so concentric loops of wine and crimson metal coil around a pinched core in the upper middle of the frame. Crimson #d84957 floods the surface, a peach Light color #f0ab88 warms the highlights, and Color dispersion at 68 fires thin cobalt glints from the #314694 First color along the seams. It reads like a thermal camera image cast in metal, bold enough for gaming, music or event visuals.
Make it yours
Tame the blue flashes
Color dispersion is set to 68, well above the default 45, and that is where the electric blue edge lines come from. Lower it to 30 for a purer red swirl, or push it to 90 for an even louder, glitchy look.
Loosen the coil
Fold frequency 6 packs many rings into the vortex. Drop it to 3 for fewer, fatter loops that leave calmer areas for text, and raise Subject scale above 100 to enlarge each loop.
FAQ
How do I make Infrared metal feel less aggressive?
Move Second color from crimson toward a dusty coral, lower Reflection contrast from 72 to around 55 and set Color dispersion near 30. The vortex keeps its shape, but the red softens and the blue seams fade back.
