Another multiple layer sandwich. Layers Palette from top to bottom.

G. Hue/Saturation (Saturation, -100): Zap all color from layers below

F. Brightness/Contrast (-8,-19): Apply a little grayness to background area via mask

E. Copy of original image, desaturated with Sprayed Strokes applied. Used to restore a little detail using Layer Mask.

D. Virtual Painter Gouache (Darken), selectively applied using Layer Mask

C. Virtual Painter collage (black strokes only**) + VP drawing (black only** ) merged with Insta Sketch Pencil layer to which Levels were applied. Set blend to Darken so only the black strokes would be visible.

** the action that does extracts the black strokes only from Collage and Drawing can be downloaded here:

Danny, this is great! I was trying to figure out what to do with that picture, and couldn't come up with anything I was happy with -- then you post this. I'll have to do some more thinking now....

Thanks for the kind words, Jeff. Glad you're inspired. Now hop to it!

In this version I applied action "ART-Sketch Chrome LindaV-djr" from action set "DannyR DPR ver 07" that's included in the collection available here: http://www.geocities.com/kafuensis/

Danny - your second b&w attempt here is outstanding. As you know, I like to take a bash at aircraft pictures like this - that is a great technique.

Danny ,


WOW double WOW!
I like them both VERY much.

I was inspired by your first one because I tried to recreate your image and saw the collage and drawing layers gave good colors too.
So instead of keeping the black lines I kept the colors

bottom layer is bg : Normal
2 : drawing or collage can't remember, minus black lines / normal
3 : collage or drawing minus lines / hard light
4 buzz sketch 1 / threshold/ aniso/ Usm/ delete disturbing black points. Eliminate white./ hard light or darken

Jeff : your wreckage is really inspired too.

Cheryl
