Here is a recent image with Fractalius Sketch 03 applied.

Worked beautifully, Ian. Striking image. KB

Beautiful base image and composition. Those eyes are amazing! For me, the tiger is getting a bit lost in the background with the fract effect unless this is how you visualized. TFS.

Thanks Kora & Indranil
I agree about the lack of background clarity but I liked the emphasis effect on the Sumatran's face.
Could be a candidate for quick masking or remask 2.

Ian, Really cool looking fractalius work. The Tiger is great. I agree it blends into the BG but it also looks good as is IMO.:)

Thanks Denise

I love it as is! The tiger does blend a bit with the BG but tigers are supposed to blend in to the BG. :)

Great image. I like the black and white, but I think it might be interesting is use to frac on everything but the eyes. The eyes are usually focal points on this type of image and the fractalius doesn't help IMO. Actually, if you use Photoshop, you can use fractalius on the image, then use the history brush on the eyes to revert back to the original. Generally a soft brush works best.
The contrast of color(eyes) to the black and white usually looks pretty good, but you don't have to go color. Like I said, I think preserving the eyes in this type image works best, even if it is still black and white. regards~Bill
