Style Experiment

[Dave R]

This is what I was saying from the beginning. A simple Hidden Line export on a layer set to Multiply over whatever textured image works fine. Whether that is a rendered image like yours or the ones I showed or simple Textured image export from SU or even if you want to just put a texture over the whole image and not affect the edges.

In this image I have run the textured faces through FotoSketcher but the lines weren't affected because they are a separate image export that was laid over the FotoSketcher image.

When you create a new layer it takes no special effort to set it to Multiply.

And as I showed before in this image, sometimes it can be useful to use several line exports made at different sizes. That gives you way to create the appearance of different line weights.

sorry dave.. i'm a bit hard headed at times and need info force fed to me

(really, what's happened here is i used to use 'overlay' for all this stuff but have since switched to 'multiply'.. i just haven't tested in all situations but by way of this thread, i did get to personally test in a new situation and have seen for myself now that what you've been saying from the beginning is correct.. sorry for hacking up your thread in order to arrive at this realization )

What a great experiment. It has inspired me to do some of my own. I'll have to post later.
