Inkscape Tutorial - Creating a Mosaic Effect with Pattern along Path

In this more advanced video, I create a somewhat realistic-looking mosaic effect in Inkscape using the path effect Pattern along Path. Starting with the rough shape of the goldfish using circles and the node tool, I create a mosaic pattern [and some variations] to use with the Pattern along Path effect. By using lines matching the shape of the fish, I bend the pattern, fill in smaller shapes with the Pen Tool, and finally separate all into individual tiles to colour with the Dropper Tool. Enjoy!
