the attached photo and MPC file are my latest attempt at a face from a photo. Still a bit of a Work in Progress but I think I am getting the knack of it. Using PhotoShop and converted it to black and white. Then set a pallet with 6 shades from black to white and three colors. Red, Blue, & Yellow. Each color carves at a different depth as does each shade of black. These colors and the use of gradients produced this. I used best setting, not optimal and have done no sanding. Still needs some work, but it is comming along.
