| | What i did was - in painter i cloned the orig and applied virtual painter-drawing, to the cloned image. Used a cloning brush and smudged onto orig, finally used a modified impr filter to brighten up the colors and give it a wc effect. Also adjusted hue-sat-value in painter until i was satisfied, and in ps sharpened the image a bit. |

This is way beyond cool. |

| | | I duplicated the layer then desaturated the the duplicate layer. I Duplicated the the desaturated layer and inverted it. Changed the blend mode on the top inverted Layer to Colour Dodge. I applied a Gaussian blur with a 2.5 pixel radius to the invertted layer to give it a pencil sketch look. Then merged the two top layers and changed to Luminosty blend mode.The added the Filter/Artistic/Fresco.
I read how to do this a couple of months ago.I wish I bookmarked it, as there were some other great tutorials. I've been googling trying to find it but so far no luck. |

| | Hey Legacy~Art, your tiger would have looked good as a poster next to my Easy Rider poster in 1975 |

| | | Tiger eyes Well, I played with different cloners in Painter, then took it back to PS and used blending modes on several layers. Added texure, and then sketched with different brushes.

I have to tell you, i get very manipulative (with my art work of course  ) and I sometimes use the "fill with clone image" feature in painter at low opacities apart from actual cloning. It all depends on what end result i'm after, though sometimes i'm surprised by something unexpected!
Anyway, here's my jaykita.set file, zipped and sent to you. Hope no problem opening it. |

| | I did the tiger in a combination of PS and Painter by using the AHB first and then sending the picture to Painter for cloning. Back to PS for tweaking and texture.
Great subject.

| | | I couldn't resist painting this cat!
I used Trimoon's art history brushes and cotton canvas texture to achieve this rendition. |

Hi L~A
Well the deadants tag is what I use for the Rootschat genealogy forum. I was going to use Ants, but that name had been taken by someone else who left this forum a few weeks ago after getting his nickers in a twist.
The poster was one of those movie posters that weree around in the 70's, you know, Clint Eastwood, Easy Rider, Marilyn Munroe etc.. They were standard wall decorations when you were living in cheap rented accomadation. Usually stuck to the wall with blue tack. Ah, they were the days. I think I'll go and listen to Iron Butterfly's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida now. |
