I would like to make some nice oil-paintings...?

[Angelot]

Hi!

I'm quite new to the use of plugins. I've stumbled around in Adobe Photoshop for some time, I now I would like some automated features who make the lot for me....

I would like to add an oil-painting filter/plugin for some of my images. What filter can I use, and where can I find it?

I would like to see a demo before I buy...

Thanks!

One of the best painting plugins is Paint Engine. It is freely available at www.fantasticmachines.com

Caravaggio is new plugin (PS, PSP compatible) by Xero, at http://www.xero-graphics.co.uk The site has a few brief but sufficient instructions for using it. It's my favorite "oil" filter now, and it is free.

Here's one portrait I did with Caravaggio; the original photograph was mediocre, and the filter saved it.

Here's another, from a good photograph.

You can try Dynamic Auto Painter , it is a standalone program, not a plugin. There is a free trial but it does leave a watermark at the bottom of your painting. I bought it and use it all the time. http://www.mediachance.com
