| Fractalius Swan |
After much debate, I finally decided to take the route I should have gone long ago: get a fractalius plugin. But since I am a MAC user, this plugin is not available for a MAC installed copy of Photoshop. What I do have is a VMWare installed copy of Windows XP, where I occasionally use Breeze Browser to get some additional information from an image.
Today I purchased a copy of Photoshop Elements V11 and a license for the Fractalius plugin.
There has been much debate on the net as to why the developer of Fractalius does not release a copy of this plugin for the MAC community. However, I can relate the motivation(s) not to.
The above image is rendered with a glow100 filter, from the image below.
In an additional layer mask I revealed the eye and the bill from the below layer.
Shoot me an email if you have questions about the installation of VMWare, PS Elements or Fractalius on your MAC.
NB:
- a license for VMWare for MAC is €50
- a license for PS Elements V11 for Windows is €100
- a license for Fractalius is $40
The picture is very cool!!!
I have been using Fractalius for several years, and when I switched from PC to Mac 2 years ago was very sad to learn that there was no Mac version available! Now that I have found your info, I am going to try the workaround! Thanks and nice image!
