Pentagon  is used here to generate this salamander looking fractal. Notice that the head and tail branch out from a star shape.

Compare with Pentaflake and Star Fractal for the similarity.

This is how it is done:

Start with a pentagon at the centre and it is mirrored and arrayed to get the above atage. No fractal has emerged yet.

 

By repeating the process above a rhombus has appeared.

 

A primitive stage of salamander has emerged.

 

As long as the same procedure is followed, new  creatures will appear with their size & number  increased.
