House filtered with oil paint filter. Other items cut out, resized and placed on table using different blend modes and I changed a few colors. (5 years and 810 days ago)
Please link the house to the picture and information page, where the license and usage can be seen.
Fixed.
Thank you

The pencil drawing effect was done by desaturating the picture, duplicating it, change the top layer to color dodge mode. Invert and blur the top layer about 6-10 pixels according to your liking. Merge the layers and adjust the levels to make the blacks darker. I also used the cross hatch brush strokes filter but you can use any other artistic filter you prefer or just leave it as it is.
I then transformed it to fit into the frame.
The glasses and pencils were cut out, resized and slightly changed in color using color adjustment layers. (5 years and 811 days ago)
Great idea. It is a great source of the house. I would make the roof and windows frames a little darker, for a bit more contrast, but great job.
Thank you very much.

The abode of the bookworms.
Beware of all bookworm invasions.

Stunning technique author... I'm just having issues trying to figure out what the planet is.. it looks more like an inter-dimensional rift such as a wormhole (which fits the idea of this chop perfectly) or the porthole in Stargate.
Your use of Polar Coor is awesome as I always get stuck in the symmetry quandary and the work to make it line up drives me nuts...hehehe
It's your interpretation so I'm sure it's okay, I'm just offering up my opinion. (Excellent skill all round). I'm just thinking if a clear sphere or something might add to the piece (ONLY FOR THE CONTEST).
I always give a high vote for good work, and you have it in spades here
This version is fantastic.. I'm just thinking planet. An Oort Cloud around it would be cool as well. IMHO of course. I just love anything Sci Fi (super Geek) so this was a trip right from the start. Good luck author and great job.
Thank you very much. The worm hole effect is what I was after since it's a planet for book worms. Worms need a worm hole to crawl into, don't they?
To get the right symmetry for the polar coordinates, just duplicate your layer and flip it horizontally on a 50% opacity so you have mirrored edges on the sides and then simply erase the center of the top layer before you merge them into one.
I tried the clear sphere over the top of the planet but it was too overdone for my taste.
You forced me to learn something new though. I have never heard of an Oort cloud before so I was curious enough to google it and learn all about it. Thanks for the lesson, suggestions and inspiration. It will all come in handy in future.
