Here's an attempt anyway. :depressed Steve C. Swampy 07-30-2007, 03:25 PM Gee, Steve, I thought working on those bright colors would perk ya up, hon! Your version is very colorful and pretty. lkroll 07-30-2007, 08:41 PM Again using Xero's Abstractor (guess I'm in my Abstract phase; lol) for this one; lot's of preprocessing (don't ask) before the Abstractor application. Here (http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/879/mardigrasmaskgm9.jpg)'s the full rendering (attached is a crop). :) palms1 07-31-2007, 05:02 AM interesting subject, great colours thanks swampy Palms Swampy 07-31-2007, 07:40 AM Wonderful crop and rendering, lkroll.

Your version is very colorful and pretty. OK trying again............"Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?" Steve C. Swampy 07-31-2007, 01:18 PM Lots of motion in that one, Steve. What kind of brush did you use? cardmnal 07-31-2007, 03:36 PM Great pic swampy. Wonderful colors Here is my take. Alan Swampy 08-01-2007, 03:00 AM Alan, how did you do that? It is a great painting! Steve Conway 08-01-2007, 09:30 AM Lots of motion in that one, Steve. What kind of brush did you use? I used a brush style I created in Gertrudis. The original which was about 5 or 600 KB looked a bit sharper, but we can't have everything. :) Steve C. cardmnal 08-01-2007, 12:55 PM Thank you Swampy, I wish I could paint like that. Actually it's all smoke and mirrors. I applied an assortment of adjustment layers (don't remember what right now) and blends and flattened the image. Then I ran it through Alien Skin's Snap Art Impasto plugin. Finally I duped the layer and used the emboss filter, set to multiply, and reduced the opacity. Alan Swampy 08-01-2007, 02:01 PM Thanks for the work flow, Alan. I haven't sprung for Snap Art or too many other filters. Maybe for Christmas.....:-) dmrdm 08-01-2007, 03:34 PM Hue/Sat, ran through several Photoshop filters. Neat colors in the photo. sylvia1065 08-03-2007, 10:48 AM Nice picture!! Done with different layers of Lucisart. Sylvia Bob Mc 08-03-2007, 12:30 PM combos of Xero, Paint Engine, Pencil Pixels and Buzz ...and some adjustment layers and blending modes Regards Bob Mc |
