White stallion

[PSA]

Have still been giving "painting" my pictures a go. Any thoughts would be very appreciated. Thanks!

PSA, Very KEWL!.. And your painting technique/workflow was what?

I kept looking for the Unicorn Horn!

Keep up the good work!
looking forward to seeing more of your work!

cool mosaic lyle (are we off on another binge now ?)

that will teach you to have idea's ol baldy great uni

amica i dont think you have messed the picture up at all

and a ahb from me

[PSA]

Thank you all! I've really been just using the smudge tool. I did have to turn the one ear around and saturated the eyes a bit, but that was as far as that went. How fun to see all of your different takes on the picture!
Hadn't thought of a unicorn, looks cool.
Love the cut-out, amica999, how did you do that, if I may ask?

[amica999]

Thank you, PSA, glad you like it.
Now let me recall: while in RAW I adjusted the exposure and pumped up the clarity a bit, in PS, I used the Shadow/Highlight adjustment to get rid of the dark shadow on the nose, masked out the rest. Duplicated layer and ran Filter-Artistic-cutout with settings 7,4,2 on the pic, applied a black mask and painted with Peter's brush - well sort of - (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/tur...tml#post218611) and dapped with white at an opacity of 25% on the mask. Finally sharpened with USM values about 100,1,0...but not sure That's all

Just playing. Reminded me of winter for some reason.

Enhanced and overlaid a sketch version. Heavily painted the background. Used Impressionist tool to paint entire picture.

Joe,
You won't ever hear me go against Palms, leader of my way: but I do get winter. It looks like a snow flurry with those huge white flakes that fall upon you like feathers.
Nice.
PSA, your is beautiful. The only thing missing is Lancelot........

[slidefoot]

PSA - Your talent motivated me... I took your beautiful White stallion one step further... See the image on the right.
