Electric Raven
This raven got caught in a freak electrical storm! He is crackling with energy. :cool:
Fractalius, of course, then ran a final round of USM on a layer copy. Set that layer's mode to "multiply" and adjusted the opacity to get the background to drop out. A little different take on the "light/dark" concept. :cool:

Awesome image Kerry. The Fractalius filter has not let you down. I like the cool colors and electric spark.
Didn't anyone tell him its dangerous to perch on electric wires??? :D
Very cool effect, Kerry. I'm looking at this and wondering if there is some way to make the feathers even "stiffer" so they seem to bounce the electricity even more. Maybe a round of High pass filter?
wow... I love the effect on the Raven. Excellent composition, Kerry. The blue eye and the sparkle takes it over for me.
Kerry, beautiful fract work. I love the eye and the feathers. It's a WOW:)

Love it Kerry!!! Very cool use of the effect and it works perfectly!
Frac is perfect for this Kerry. Really like it. Great PP'ing.
The Fracting is killer. The COMP is well done as ones like this can be awkward. Love the white outline and the electic feathers. Wish only that you had a better head angle to start with....
