Hello,

is there any script to make a "tunnel"? the only thing I manage to find is polar coordinate filter, but it is too much. So it should be an "incomplete" polar coordinate filter.

so for example, I have this cloud picture: http://night-fate-stock.deviantart.com/art/above-the-clouds-304553983

and I want to make it into a "cloud tunnel" like this:

or maybe this one better represents what I want to achieve:

If I use polar coordinates filter, the outer part usually is "too distorted".

I hope really hope you guys understand what I mean.

Thanx for the helps

Pan to Bow script- http://registry.gimp.org/node/20869

set to 360 (I had to flip the picture vertically first)

First create your best effort cloud ring (made horizontally seamless cloud line and ran Pan to Bow Script-fu set to 360 degs).



Now run Mathmap's Droste preset:



Do some addition clone/heal work and voila.

Just realized that I did a poor job at making it horizontally seamless. lolol

Fixed my ring and played with the Droste settings to give a wider ring and bigger center hole.

yes lylejk, that looks pretty epic !

Thanks folks; call my final result the Tempest. Why not. lol

lyle, can this be done with the 'Droste' filter (under arrays & frames) from G'Mic as well ?

G'MIC doesn't give you the spiraled droste effect; it's more russian doll style, so, I don't think so Esper. Now, I gotta run.

Still having fun; may share this one at other sites.
