Re: Creative challenge 001: Pamela in BW

Thanks, Pavel.

My vexelization was made the easy way (i.e. I don't draw very well.)

First I made a full glamour retouch in B&W (attached). I made the vignette with 4 passes of angled perpendicular gradient fills.

I was ready to call it a day, but decided to experiment with Artistic Poster Edges followed by Artistic Cutout. Sorry, I don't recall the settings I used in those plugins. Lastly, I ran a moderate high pass sharpen. It was more of an accidental result than a purposed one.

I did this with PhotoImpact, but should easily translate to any other editor.

BTW, I love your sketch too and would also like to learn how you did that.

Re: Creative challenge 001: Pamela in BW

Lonnie, thank you for walk through.

I did a B&W sketch in PS (attached) - a combination of layers made with
1. desaturate/duplicate/invers/color dodge/gaussian blur
2. desaturate/duplicate/invers/color dodge/mimimize
3. high pass/torn edges
4. original B&W photo
5. grey bg

merged with layer masks

merged layers, opened in Painter, used chulk brushes (mostly tapered artst chulk) on a clone.

Moved back to PS, charpened and added background

Hope that answers your question. If need addtionoal details please let me know.

Re: Creative challenge 001: Pamela in BW

A lot of you have gotten to this long before I did. Been busy and haven't been keeping up with challenges. Must though to keep in practice. Being new at this I didn't know whether to usr B&W mode or just to desaturate the color when done. So anyway it went liike this -- First I smudged and got her all glamorized. Got rid of loose hair ends and wisps. Created a background tha would hold after going B&W. Then I "desaturated". Then added some lighting. I did this in about 30 minutes so a lot of loose ends but it turned out fare I think.

Thanks for all of you that help us out here and share with us technique etc. We all can learn from each other.

Peter, you are really doing some top notch stuff these days. This one of Pamela in BW is superb. I'm glad you revived this thread.
