One from my arhives,2006 to be exact.Playing with Fractalius ,then I used the "Apply Image" in photoshop to give it a richer colour after dialing back to around 40% opacity.

Just lovely, Peter- I'm so glad you "dialed back"- am not a fan of Fractalius, but this works beautifully. Just the right amount of texture , so well suited to the lion's coat. It is such a regal pose as well. The only thing I might suggest further, is to restore the original eyes by erasing the fractals on that layer, (if you can still do that).

Peter, terrific image! The Fractalius treatment looks great and is very impressive, particularly when the image is viewed large. You have turned the lion into a work of art.

Thanks for that Cynthia, I will bear that in mind if I do anymore.

Mr sleepyhead! I'm not a fan of Fractalius on animals either, but it can work if its not overdone - and you have got the balance just about spot on with this one Peter!
