jmwellborn Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Taking a break from variable fonts and typography panels (latest Betas). Used the original illustration from the public domain collection of the British Library, did some B/W adjusting to the original, then some watercolouring, then a pastel plugin, back to Photo. Saved as a PNG, then placed it in a new file, added a duplicate layer then a new fill layer above the background layer, an inverted mask and some watercolour brushes, then some adjustments (levels, brightness/contrast, vibrance) and then a merge visible. All suggestions thanks to @Frankentoon Studio 's mystery box series. Added a new pixel layer and some more watercolour painting, then a lighting filter. Any resemblance to the famous Castle in Ghana is purely incidental. 🫣 Alfred, StuartRc, Komatös and 1 other 4 Quote 24" iMAC Apple M1 chip, 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 16 GB unified memory, 1 TB SSD storage, Ventura 13.6.
