All aglow

Well "mylifefashion" has given me permission to do this (I hope she doesn't regret it)

Thanks Beth

I'm sure there is better than mine to come.

Re: All aglow

Well, with her body, she has reason to "glow"! There was never a day in my life that I looked that good...

I did some USM/diffuse, then some PolarCoord and Extrude with some masking out of rough spots it added, and then added a Diffuse glow.

Re: All aglow

palms, that's an interesting look. i like it. the extraction is a bit irregular in places, but the overall is pretty amazing.

and cassidy, when i first saw yours i immediately thought 'goldfinger!' where they painted that woman gold in the film

Re: All aglow

Preprocessing for contrast (help via Xero's Supersmooth filter for initial Aniso) and then Autotract vector simplication. Other color/gamma/sat adjustments.
