I'm seeking a good tutorial on how to achieve something sorta kinda like this:

or this:

I can do the pretty tops and peaks, but it's the swirling in the (loaf) mold that has me lusting.
Anyone have tips or even a link to a tutorial they'd recommend? I figure the key is pouring at light trace and then pouring a final layer of heavier traced soap on top ... but what I can't figure out is the "direction" or pattern of the stirring or swirling or whatever it is these brilliant soapers are doing. Love the natural waves and lines, some fine and some thicker.
(Note: I've seen the "hanger" in the mold method but I don't really care for the spider-y pattern it makes...)
