Re: Ragdoll..

What a GORGEOUS cat!!!

Couldn't resist adding my attempt.

MEOW (as opposed to WOOF)

Janet

P.S. I suppose I should add a bit of information. I began by making basic corrections such as contrast and hue/saturation before I began painting with the AHB. When the AHB didn't work too well, I smudged a bit and put the original (also partly smudged) copy on top, then lowered the opacity to about 40 percent. Merged visible and sharpened the whole thing. Then I added two texture layers, one with a heavy pattern and another with sandstone. Done.

Re: Ragdoll..

You people have turned "Harley" into some beautiful Art.. Kudos to all of you! Well Done!

I've been told all my life that Blonds have more fun... Is it true?
