Start with a new document in your program. Make it 100x100
pixels for convenience sake.
|
 |
Step 1:
Go to KPT 3's Texture Explorer. Add a pleasing texture in
colors you like.
|
 |
Step 2:
Go to KPT 3's Twirl and select "Kaleidoscope" mode.
Use a minimum of 10 slices. Angle doesn't matter.
|
 |
Step 3:
Offset the image by one half of the dimensions, in this case,
50 horizontal and 50 vertical. Select "Wrap Around."
|
 |
Step 4:
Select KPT 3's Twirl using Kaleidoscope mode again as in
Step 2.
|
 |
Step 5:
Offset again, but instead of using half the dimensions, use
1/3 or 2/3, or 1/4 or 3/4. I set Horizontal to 30 and Vertical
to 70 here.
|
 |
Step 6:
Select KPT 3's Twirl again, but use Twirl mode (instead of
Kaleidoscope). Play around with it to get the characteristic
"comma" look of the paisleys. You now have a tiling
piece of paisley!
|
 |
Step 7:
Use this last step to make the repeating pattern a little
more interesting. Select KPT 3's Planar Tiling. Set the Angle
to 45, -45, 135 or -135. Set the scale to 33. Voila!
