its no the same as a cell shader, i've been looking online, cant find a free photoshop cell shader

I know I can do it in 3D Studio becuase they added cell shading for v5, but I dont have it at work, got it at home somewhere, probably only works on objects and not textures though.

Lol, i had no idea what was meant by 'Auto Modellista' when it was mentioned last night but typed it into Google and soon found out.

RB5 286, that high-res pic is excellent, mind if i have a wee play with it later? The second attempt of yours on my own car is very nice.

Going to have to open up Photoshop later and have a go using the 'cheats'.


IanW let me play around with his car earlier on, see what you think. Done in a much higher resolution this time.

Idiots guide:

'Line' + 'fill' + several hours...


Is there an echo in here?

what he's trying to tell us is that its hard work, what I'm trying to say is that there is no reason that you wouldnt be able to get hold of a cell shader plugin

Glad you like it Ian.

A mate came round earlier on tonight after spending 5 hours cleaning his car so i got some mega high-res pics and had a crack with it. 5 hours this time and nearly 4000 seperate lines!

The smaller version.



Working in higher resolutions leads to much better results imo.


What effects/filters di you use Brun?

I take it you did that in Illustrator Jay? Will have to get my hands on a copy soon. Looks excellent.

I've just been having a play with the filters on PS using all the effects used and mentioned above. I knew it was a capable program but am starting to realise now just how good it is. Had hardly touched the 'filters' menu before but i love some of the effects that can be acheived through it, particulary the 'fresco' one used above.

Yeah I have to say all these filter effects etc are nice, but nothing is comparing to Carl's line & fill work.

His stuff is TOPS!

Lmao! I meant to drop something in my last post about cheating lol!

I'll crack open Flash in a sec and see if i can get the same effect.

Am still playing with the effects on Photoshop at the moment, going through them all so i can spot them in the future! I like 'plastic wrap'!


Will have a go at the silver car soon, then the mammoth that is that RB5 pic!

Ok,

i managed to find out how to do the effect in less then 3 minutes

1. select 'cutout' from the 'artistic' list in filters menu
2. enter ur values for the sliders, best for this effect is:
levels: 8
Simplicity: 0
Fidelity: 3
3. Duplicate the layer
4. Make sure u have selected the new layer
5. select 'find edges' in 'stylize' list from 'Filters' menu
6. press Ctrl+U, tick the 'colorize' box in the bottom right of the Hue/saturation window that has just popped up.
7. Make sure all three slider values are '0' click 'ok'
8. Select Image/adjust/'brightness/contrast'
9. adjust sliders to make your lines as heavy/dark u want them, when ur happy click 'ok'
10. U will now need the 'layers' window open, so if its not, window/show layers
11. Now in the top right, left of 'opacity' of the layers window u can select from 'normal/dissolve/multiply etc'
scroll thru them to get ur desired effect.


So easy and so quick

small adjustments can be made thru this process to however u want the image

Colour burn


Multiply

RB5, have just opened Photoshop up and tried your wee tutorial. I have to say that it produces a very nice effect, much better than just slapping a single filter on. I tried it with the Astra i did last night, i've stuck both pictures below for a direct comparison.

My attempt.



Cheating.




Very effective imo considering it takes such little time comparatively.
