Attaching the svg vector (resized). Only thing I did before the resize this time which I did not do in my original is cleaned up the eye before the resize.

Thanks! My results from your vector conversion turned out pretty good.

Thanks for the svg, been experimenting with a rusted look so tried it out on the image, hardest part for me is trying to get a descent background.

That look great!
It has the look of some kind of stone. I have background trouble to. That's why I've posted them without BG's.

Indeed it did come out pretty cool Tux. Definitely like the rust patina too he4rty.

Hope Tux don't mind; only 8K. lol

I used Inkscape to fill the voids and used an exclusion for the head since it indeed contains 2 selections (one of them being the eye).

Easier to use in GIMP now.

Thanks Lyle, I'm going to give this a try. :bigthup

Why not more play. Used an extracted black pearl as the target texture (source now unknown (got it many years ago) so don't use the pearl for commercial use or you might get burned one day; I only did the extraction).

Your latest Phoenix is really spectacular Lyle! :jumpclap

Here's what I did with your sgv, it's really super clean too...
