In a recent post I showed you how to create a kaleidoscope using Photoshop. As one of the techniques for using a kaleidoscope, I suggested you could create a repeating pattern from it. One reader posed the question as to how a repeating pattern could be created given that there were spaces around the original shape. In this tutorial we'll learn how to create a Kaleidoscope effect digitally using Photoshop from a given image.see the updated tutorial here https://youtu.be/. Kaleidoscope 2.1 is a plugin which proceeds to multiple symmetries to obtain beautiful patterns. Since the version 2, this plugin proposes three spinning effects: Mirror: traditional effect. Consecutive sectors are symmetric. Copy: takes a sector and repeat it. Transition between consecutive sectors are antialiased. This Photoshop plug-in boasts an easy-to-use object editor that will make it a lot easier to draw and edit your shapes. Thanks to the ParticleShop plug-in for Photoshop, you can now play around with Corel Painter tools. From fabric to fur, ParticleShop boasts over 10 brushes!
