Great pic Macca. From the name on the tram, was this in New Zealand?

Here's a watercolor try.

Interesting old street car.
I used Photoshop, Topaz Adjust 3, and then Akvis sketch to arrive at my colored illustration type.

Here's an "Old Photo" version and a "Copper Plate" version.

Like the copper plate one Gerry. Anyway, just experimenting again. Used Linetracer (after a lot of pre-processing) to get the line-art and then widened the lines.

Nice aging effect Gerry. I haven't tried one of those in a while. Here's my go.

Topaz version...

Skip...wow. I've not seen a photo aged as well as this one. Now, what a hoot to "reverse the aging process"!

Veralisa · #10 06-05-2009, 11:19 PM

Such a charming little picture, couldn't help trying one myself. PS filter DarkStrokes 7-1-1 on a Soft light blend layer
over
original pic on Normal blend layer, Saturation boost and new sky added
texturized with sandstone.

Now, that old photo look was covered

Thanks Veronica, sometimes it's fun to take a new picture of something old and try and age it to look like it has been sitting in a drawer on on a desk for a long (or very long) time.

OK, I'll admit I may have gone a bit "around the bend" on this one, but years ago when I lived in England I saw people doing Brass Rubbings on plaques in old churches and historic sites and thought I would try to simulate the effect in Photoshop.

This is what I came up with.

Can't seem to stay away from this pic. Here's a color/B&W skecth try.

GerryB · #18 06-09-2009, 04:00 PM

Here's a sketch + AHB from me.

dkcoats · #19 06-09-2009, 04:59 PM

Thanks for the pic, Macca.
I used CS2, Topaz Adjust & Clean, and DA Painter.

rogier · #20 06-09-2009, 05:18 PM

Nice pics ,love those topaz filters

FranS · #23 08-11-2009, 09:28 PM

Hi, I'm new to the group. I've been lurking for quite a while and decided to take the plunge today. I used Topaz Simplify, Akvis Sketch, and the Impressionist filter on my version of the tram.

Fran

PS I hope I sized this correctly.

sponge03 · #24 08-12-2009, 12:00 AM

Welcome Fran, great first post

MiningArt · #25 08-12-2009, 02:57 PM

Nice renditions all around. I tried a neon high contrast effect for mine.

mcfly201 · #26 01-01-2010, 02:47 AM

I used the AHB for this after removing most of the background

lynn55 · #27 01-01-2010, 02:10 PM

That great edit.

I set Color = Map = Alien map at GIMP

Thank you
