Description
This filter was designed to give "monster skins" to normal portrait type photos. It was tested using primarily just one such photo.There are 7 different "skin" effects which you combine using the opacity controls to create the look you want.There is also a built-in masking feature, which you use with the "picker" controls at the bottom of the control list.The masking cannot be exact due to certain current limitations but I got it as close as I could. Thus, you may need to take your finished image back into a paint program for more masking to allow features of your image to show.The filter also borrowed other filters made by other folks. "Brain Jelly Cuisine" by Ionic69, "Exposed Flesh" by Joe Brandibas, "Alien Armor" by CFandM, and "Alien Egg Cluster" by RawArt, were all used in some manner.No actual people or monsters were hurt or injured in the making of this filter.
