Random Clone - mrkid - 11-14-2025

Hi! Im looking to know if there is a way to random clone an object. I mean, that the size, rotation, or some other properties could be randomized to avoid the mechanical looking. By example, i want to add apples to a tree. I want that apples vary slighty so it looks more real.
I remember to see something like that with Gimp brushes.
Any tip?

I do not think anything using the clone tool (although that would be nice)

..Something about Gimp brushes ?  Perhaps a Gimp Image Hose (.gih) animated brush.

At its simplest,

Painting in, 
Top is without brush dynamics, just used the brush tool options (for brush size)
Bottom is with a dynamics setting.
