For 3D fractals, have a look at mandelbulb: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbulb

And for discussion of 3D analog of the original Mandelbrot, check out the Math Exchange discussion[1] and site dedicated to finding it.[2]

The vanilla zoomed mandelbrot[3] looks 3d to me. It's interesting that actually turning them into true 3d is such an elusive problem.
