Alright, one final post on online mandala making :D I wanna show you the SilkWeaver website (also available as app on android and iPhone, i think) (but i only know and used the website version off the desktop~)
Anyway, this particular tool is a lot more colourful and shinier but it's also a lot less controllable. The algorithm generates randomizes silk weaving based off your mouse's movements in general strokes. You can't get it to really precisely produce a specific shape, in other words.
All you can do is nudge the cursor in broad forms and hope something pretty ish would come out. I found my best results were happening when I let go of trying to control the drawings, to be honest, with the silk weaver XD
Here is a video of a Cosmic Flower that I did~
Pretty colours~ Right??? :D
And I think the process is quite self explanatory, as well. You basically choose the how-many-points-of-repetition you wanna work with. I think the Cosmic Flower used the 5-points setting, and then you choose the colour you wanna draw with and just start drawing! You can change colours mid-way and you can also undo strokes you are not happy with~ It's an intuitive tool set-up, I think :)
Here is the finished picture:
Took less than a few minutes to make this shiny Cosmic Flower, too~
Again, like the other websites I mentioned in my earlier posts, you don't need anything other than internet and your mouse to make these. And they are aided, sure, by the engine, but they are still your drawing. Your strokes make these forms appear, and you chose the colours and the basic shapes, so there's still some originality in these.
Like I mentioned to 
Where there is will to bring something of value that is original, there ARE MANY WAYS to do so. You don't need fancy tools like drawing tablet or access to expensive drawing softwares like Photoshop or Blender, or even pencil and paper. I've mentioned a few websites in the previous posts, there are sketch.io, and silk weaver, and google deep dream, and if you're not keen on drawing or art, you can still write a story and entertain others.
OK, enough wordswordswords from me!
I wanna close out with another art I made with the silk weaver and this time it is sort of a fanart to a game, Devil May Cry 5. Cuz I'm playing that at the moment and as I was playing I noticed its logo and I thought it's something that I can recreate with the silkweaver so here it is :D
As Australia is in #lockdown, i've found myself gaming again XD I haven't really played anything on the console for a long time, to be honest, so it's a nice change of pace to just sit at the couch and start to button mash again lol
The franchise itself is an amazing series, and one of my favourites :D I love the game style and the characters and some of the level designs were just so much fun~ My favourite from this franchise is DMC3 but DMC5 is really rocking my boots right now :D
I think it's a nice family story, at the end of the day. Brotherhood <3
Alright, I hope you are all doing well and staying safe.
From me, that's this would be the last post about online mandala / pattern drawing websites :) I will be moving on in the future to talk about other things and since I'm back playing some games, I might do talk about gaming a bit more :D
See you next time, friends o/
