Quick
Origami Tiles


To
work this Tutorial you will need: Paint
Shop Pro, Xenofex 1.1 plugin filter, Simple
filters and an image or a tube of your choice
Lets
get started:
Either
open an image of your choice duplicate shift+D and close original,
resize to 200x200, using the following settings.
Image/resize, pixel size 200x200, Bilinear Resample, all layers
checked, maintain aspect ratio unchecked.
Or
open a new image 200x200 transparent, floodfill with your desired
colour, Layers/New Raster Layer and apply your chosen tube,
Layers/Merge all flatten.
Next
go Effects/Texture effects/Fine Leather and apply with these
settings, Colour #E0E0E0, Angle 30, Blur 40, Number of Furrows
40, Length of Furrows 4, Transparency 250.
Effects/Plugin Filters/Xenofex1.1/Origami, with the following
settings: Impressionistic,
Fold size 10, Random Seed 60.
Effects/Reflection effects/Kaleidoscope, with settings, Horizontal
offset 36, Vertical offset 35, Rotation Angle 0, Scale Factor
0, Number of Petals 16, Number of Orbits 2, Radial suction 47.
You will now have a tile similar to this:

File/Save
as/ name.........tile01.jpg and save.
Now to get more Mileage from your tile go Effects/Plugin filters/Simple/Diamond,
and you will get another tile similar to this one:

File/Save
as/ name.......tile01a.jpg and save.
You can repeat this step up to 2 times more, to get 2 further
tiles from the one image, similar to these:


after
that, the design starts to get a little too small, but I figure
4 tiles from one image in 8 steps can't be bad.
