Welcome to the first blog with the new Ethereal Painterly Textures used!
They say all roads lead to Rome, well this one more so as its a typical Roman road that leads from Carcassonne to Rome.
I just shot this quick view on my Iphone from the roundabout at Capestang, it was captured in a bitter north-westerly lunchtime wind but the processing makes it look like evening!
Processing was easy, I opened it up in photoshop and cloned out a lamp post on the far right, just poking into the frame, never mind, gone in a moment! I then also narrowed the road markings at the base, a tad roughly but I’d redo it if necessary.
I created a new a preset called ‘Tree tunnel’ and saved it for a later pack. Then opened in Topaz Impression and used a painterly filter, again saving at just 50% strength, ready to Texture with Russell Brown’s free Flypaper texture panel with our new Ethereal Painterly set loaded. Many textures worked but I chose one that give this interesting distressed sky effect and left me with a slight vignette. Finishing with a soft brown warming texture to knock back the cold blue tones and voila!
Reha – Overlay @ 33% (desaturated)
Setebos – Overlay @ 20%
A final tweak with Photoshop Levels in Adjustment and brightness to lighten.
Both textures are from the Ethereal Painterly pack.
