These are some fine specimens of the Jubilee breed of chickens. Very proud and very paintable pair.

Rogier, here's a tip. After you create your black and white sketch, use the dodge tool on the shadow areas to knock back some of the "skritchies" in the trees and cage area. This will leave the line art detail in the chickens and simplify the overall look of your art. It will help put the focus on the birds. Just a thought.

Swampy, thank you for the photo.

...start things off (made a number of sizes modification to the preset). Then I blended back the original and some smudging. Also some edge detect burning to get some of the chicken details back. :)

Thanks, Swampy.
I had to try another one - Photoshop and Painter again, using different brushes. And a different crop (oops - no pun intended).
I think I like this one better.

Fancy birds. All we ever had was White Leghorns, Rhode Island Reds, and an occasional Dominecker. :grin:

How'd you get all those brush strokes, Steve? They go so well with this subject!

Thank you as always, Swampy.

This was done with the new Gertrudis software, GMX PhotoPainter.
