        @monsterfox This reminds me of the effect/trick you can achieve using Compound layers and contour tool in Affinity Designer. Afraid I don't know VectorStyler well enough if similar is possible.

          @Jono Is this AD file the final effect? Can you share it? I'd like to know the detailed production details, thank you.

              @Jono Thank you. Your method uses circles to create a blending effect. It's simple, but requires stitching and is a bit tedious.

                Achieving this metaball/Truchet tile effect seems like the easiest step to take.
                To get that halftone effect too is, at least, where my brain stop working.
                .
                .
                @Li-Xiao , did a Tutorial a while ago which works via the Repeater.

                Here the Link
                https://www.vectorstyler.com/forum/topic/3915/creating-a-truchet-tiles-using-repeater
                .
                .
                Just for inspiration. Here's a video from the Paragraphic YouTube
                channel showing how to create a similar pattern. I mentioned Paragraphic
                in another tread already.

                Here the Link to the video

                A search on Youtube "Metaball pattern", "Blob Pattern", "Truchet pattern"
                may also be helpful.

                  Maybe Li Xiao's method is indeed needed to complete this. Your information is very helpful. It's likely a combination of halftone and Truchet pattern. You can also take a look at that video.

                    Yes, doing things that way would be time consuming to say the least!

                    I'm going to look at the Repeater videos and resources (thanks Li-Xiao). I know I'm missing out so much of what VS can really do.

                      No need to worry 🙂
                      Even if you know much more about VectorStyler
                      you will still miss Features.

                      Because its such a deep rabbit hole 🙂

                        @Subpath This damned program—I’ve been using it for a year, and the more you use it, the more you realize there’s so much you don’t understand. I’ve never come across this in any other program. It’s a bottomless pit, haha.

                          I am in heaven with VS. ☺

                            @Subpath Okay, if explorers find any interesting features, remember to share them. I'm following in your footsteps.
