None that are as nice The Alien Akin filters are all really sweet. I have used them in the GIMP in the past, using the PSPI Plugin as a wrapper. Unfortunately, they don't work 100% using this method

Well, I honestly, wasn't wanting totally demolished domes, just weathered due to age. They wouldn't have let them fall apart, but a little weathering gives it a bit of realism. But then, I might end up using the completely whole one, due to the reduction in size once I put them in the map.
Lol! Sorry, I got a bit carried away. Here's an unbroken one!

Hmm...not sure why, but these all seem very "flat" to me. The colors are nice, but not sensing any dimensionality to them. Perhaps it's just because they are out of context "floating" in white?

An indication of the spire (a shadow or narrowing of a tile pattern) would help a great deal. One photo at the following link shows several dome designs; not all have the ice cream cone swirl:

They probably look flat because the lighting is directly overhead so the only shadows are at the base? I did a quick 3d model of one to check out how it takes the light at an angle which shows how the spire shadow looks. I might put those shadows in later.
Interesting exercise.

Yes, those shadows help immensely!
