    Thanks. :)

    I think when I make the next one(s) I'll make a more dense dot. At the minute the dot is composed from the logo you see, so maybe I could do a reversed circle or something like that....

    That's really good :icon_thumbup: Would it not be quicker (maybe) to fill the page using a patern then on a new layer use the Blob tool to draw your "white space", that could then be filld with a different / lighter pattern?

    Nice technique, would look good as a series of iconic faces

    Maybe, but if it were to be done that way there would be less control over the colour or each of the pattern's elements. For example, the file that I have - I can make all the dots in the pattern red, the dark horizontal line green, and the remainder of the 'star' pink if I wanted to.

    This is because each of those categories are on a separate layer.

    I'm a big fan blue eye.
    I did something like that a few years ago for self promotion
    It was a happy accident really! Mine isn't as detailed though, I'll see if I can dig it out!

    Nice Job!

    I can see a number of possibilities for this, it is really quite effective, thanks for sharing.
