What creative minds you've all got

Thanks for some great ideas there,
oltenius, yea I see what you mean about the hair now I've looked at it again,(funny how a later look provides a different view) I'll have to see what I can do.
lkroll, didn't see that for a second, how the hell did you do that?
Littlecoo, that, I tell you, is not far from the mark on colour!
Love them all, I envy you lot.....John.

RetouchPro's VB Codes can be found here.

I used ASCIIGen to create the text file and pasted it with the Code VB Code and the Fontsize set to 1 (smallest setting). Unfortunately, ASCIIGen requires DotNet now (the version which I have doesn't; it's old but still effective).

palms1, not exactly a wrestler, he's more a footballer (soccer) but I love your take....
Littlecoo, GOD, what patiance you've got! great colouring, if you get really bored the neck ties were burgundy...lol
lkroll, I think I'll pass on that effect then, can't think when I'd use it anyway, but it's an original idea.

Might like a higher resolution version; needs to be printed on legal paper though.

Here's my sketch of the boys. It involved the Sketcher filter from Little Ink Pot and another sketch action. I hope you like it.

Welcome, Stu... Glad you joined us. I like what you did here.

For future reference our preference at RP is to upload/attach images (100 KB max) instead of linking to galleries or other sites. That way when you redo your pBase gallery down the road, there won't be a broken link in your post.

Keep the creativity coming. You've got a nack for this type of thing.

~Danny~

Littlecoo:

Exceptional work on this one. Simply outstanding.

Aw, shucks guys!
I was thinking when I saw Stu's idea of applying a sketch filter to my coloured example, but alas I do not have the plugin for it... Anyhow, burgundy neck ties...
