Marbles





I made this really quick in about an hour after reading a post on reddit on how to fill a circle with random sized circles in Illustrator.
My initial idea was to do the circle packing with G'MIC and then trace in Inkscape, but the result is not that good.

So one thing lead to another and i made this effect completely in Gimp.

The Pack Sprites filter has improved quite a lot since i used it last time in 2013, so i was able to do this with a bunch of layers, each with a single coloured dot in six colours, plus the mask, then add the marble like texture with G'MIC - Cubism.
