Well, since "Hunk 1" is flying like a rock, here's another female to work on. Thanks to member Panpan for pointing me to this pic he found via google search.

Have fun.

danny,

i must say, you have exquisite taste. a man could get lost in those eyes.

well, i had to have a go at this one. just too many oddball, experimental steps to explain. not sure it will come out right either. i probably shld have reset my gamma before doing this.

I added mine last night but I then I looked at the forum and thought I needed to make a drawing or something. I tried to add it today and even changed the name but it keeps saying I have already added the photo. Guess I only got one chance?

Still playing with the engraver plugin.

steve,

you're definitely getting adept with that thing. nice job!

and where again did you get the engraver plugin?

Craig

Steve Conway · #8 09-09-2005, 12:08 PM

Just go to www.panopticum.com. Click on "products." Scroll down to Engraver.

It's gonna be fine once I get all the adjustments figured out.

I've only experienced this when trying to upload the exact same image as I had uploaded elsewhere, regardless of file name.

Try this:
* Click "User CP" (top/left)
* Left side of screen down about 1/2-way: Under "Miscellaneous," click "Attachments." See if you by chance you uploaded the sketch version elsewhere.

If this isn't it, open your sketch version and change its width, height or resolution just slightly, save and then try uploading it again.

Okie Dokie,
Tried what you said Danny. Seemed to work ok to resize it.

Hugs,
Loverly

Thanks Craig!

Not sure it meets the requirements or not.

I'm glad, too, that you got over the upload hangup.

Requirements? None around here 'cept "Have Fun"!

Mine? More Impressionist rendered layers sliced and diced.

steve,

have you tried colorizing any of those engraver type images? was just looking at your piece in here again and thought of this.

danny,

was that done with an action/script primarily or something else? not asking for the whole workflow, just sort of the main points.

pierre,

umm, reminds me of stories of 60's acid trips

quite wild. one question too, did you select out her lips and put them back later? they really kind of pop out here. not a bad thing, just curious.
