Well "mylifefashion" has given me permission to do this (I hope she doesn't regret it)

Thanks Beth

I'm sure there is better than mine to come.

Peter

Well, with her body, she has reason to "glow"! There was never a day in my life that I looked that good...

I did some USM/diffuse, then some PolarCoord and Extrude with some masking out of rough spots it added, and then added a Diffuse glow.

Here are a couple of interpretations that hopefully we won't be shot for posting.

Thank you Peter interesting experiment not done a "whole" body before

Palms

Wow.... what a beauty.

Going for the silk-glow look.
Lasa

A bit of a smudge

palms, that's an interesting look. i like it. the extraction is a bit irregular in places, but the overall is pretty amazing.

and cassidy, when i first saw yours i immediately thought 'goldfinger!' where they painted that woman gold in the film :)

Preprocessing for contrast (help via Xero's Supersmooth filter for initial Aniso) and then Autotract vector simplication. Other color/gamma/sat adjustments. :)

Like it Ikroll any chance you could simplify the explanation for me a bit ! :blush:
what is autotract ? can it be used with Photoshop

Palms

Typo; should have said Autotrace (http://autotrace.sourceforge.net/); can try the online interface if you don't have a supported OS. I really like vector simplication (lazy I am). It really enhances Aniso. I've posted the script before, but it's been a while. Below's the script that I use:

AUTOTRACE -corner-threshold 75 -despeckle-level 16 -despeckle-tightness 2 -output-format svg -output-file c:\temp\d.svg -report-progress %1

I port the SVG file directly into GIMP (GIMP reads vectored SVG thanks to Ghostscript (http://www.ghostscript.com/awki/Ghostscript); I like SVG since it keeps transparencies. When saving as EPS, GIMP doesn't read the transparencies), and blend it with the original (the transparencies need to be filled; if I were to use an EPS file, the transparencies would default with white which makes for a terrible situation). I know it's a little techy, so I apoligize for this, but this can't be helped. :)

Thank you Ikroll still a little bit over my head but will keep going back till it sinks in :happy:

Golden Girl. Done in Photoshop with hue and sat. layer and blurred layer.

I just rolled the dice in the Kyoto color filter in Flaming Pear filters and thought this was a cool look.

Had to have another go at this beautiful lady with art history.
I hope she likes this one.

Peter

Thought I would try something different too. Created the false colors via Retinex. Some smoothing (GREYCStoration) also. :)

There was never a day in my life that I looked that good...That goes for me too, CJ. :)

------------

Before starting this manipulation I masked the bathing suit and changed its color, and selectively applied Levels to lighten areas that looked too dark.

Experimenting continues with actions from the Pencil Pixels One-Click Volume 1 collection from www.PencilPixels.com...

On the first one I used the Styled Poster Art action. To this layer a little sharpening was applied followed by selective blurring (using Photoshop's Blur tool) to smooth some skin areas.

Great one to work with, Peter. Thanks for getting it started... and bringing it back for an encore.
