| | | Re: Smudging resources I'm so very sorry but Lisa just informed me that she doesn't wish to share her video on the Internet anymore, so I removed it from my website.
Sorry about that...

Just so you won't come gunning for me here is a pic for smudging, I know you were going to post but I saw this and thought it a good one.
My effort is smudged but taken a little further by over sharpening to highlight the brush strokes, and has an added texture layer.

link to higher res version of mine (over 1meg) [img=http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/108/gorilla2582imsl8.th.jpg]
Look forward to seeing some good versions

| | | Re: Smudging resources Peter, even though you did not show your first efforts, you truly became a smudge master. May I ask which brushes you are using? |

As for your version    That is Superb
See both you and Amica haven't really needed me !
If possible anyone doing a smudge can they put in which brush they have used it would help a lot ( as would any other details such as strength etc)

| I think the brush was Smudge tool TM#23 (Trimoons???)
Strength I know was 35% and used a lot of alternating modes - Normal/Darken/Lighten.
And yes thanks guys, and Palms I certainly need you to keep me on my toes, you keep setting the bar higher with your posts.
