Hi Pilou, I pressed A to have non rotating stamps; after some tries, i decided not to use the self-repeting feature of Image Brush (it was difficult to get gapless prints), instead i printed each stamp separately with the mouse. Because the brush image is displayed all time long, it is perfectly possible to adjust each tile side-by-side by hand, but it was less painful for me to do a little program (with Processing/Java mouse Robot) to locate the stamping positions with the required precision. This short video clip explains it better :
As you can see with the Image Brush set, the overall pattern is generated from a random selection of a single special tile, instanciated in 4 rotations at 90°. Because of the possibility of random selection of the brushes (good shot Taron !), each ouput is unique, another go will give a similar but different overall pattern (watch carefully the 2 images in the previous page). More explanations and original work from Robert J. Krawczyk (i have duplicated the tile from his example called "A Path of Your Own 013") : http://bitartworks.com/paths01/gallery01.html regards, GBoGBo
@GBo Ah ok that was a little prog! But if it was inside Verve that will be more cool! Taron will cooking this without any doubt!
You can incredibly increase your results in modifying your module because it has now a diagonal symmetry! And of course another way is also increase the number of junctions by sides (now 3 for your module) It's amazing how a very simple pattern can create some crazzy organized chaos!
Cool site of Robert J. Krawczyk of images combinations!
I have a plugin inside Sketchup by SDmitch who can make the same! (Random components replacement) You draw some empty cubes, and a familly of filled cubes et voilà! Here in 3D!
