Is it a mandala or a rug/carpet,
I guess it could be both.

Wallace - nice one!

Using one of the brushes as in post #293, I made a different mandala pattern and rendered it to make it glassy.

GasMask - thank you.

Just experimenting with brushes, Gimp filters and GMIC filters, which leads to ... serendipity!! Two different mandala style outcomes below from the same brush.

Well, after all my years using Gimp, I've found a new (yet simple) means of creating a brush for my mandalas. I created a path using Ofnuts 'Path Inbetweener', then simply stroked it using Stroke Line, with an OMG pattern and custom (stippled) line style.

Having made a brush for Erisian's Dove thread (qv) I then duplicated it, flipped it, merged the result, glassed it and used it for this mandala.
