mw_Sci-Fi Tanks by marwyn

WOW!! This is very well done and great Sci-Fi panel, and with many possible variations, like how you have done the designs with beautiful details.

This is great as source for applying some textures after using blend modes.

The only bad thing is that as it happens usually with these kind of textures in FF, is very slow, for me a 600x600 takes 15 minutes and when entering the filter editor, it takes 2 minutes two show the thumbnails inside the filter. Although I have to test this again more times.

Although the design is good for my taste I think it needs to be more sharpen and more stronger the effect, so I have made some postwork in photoshop, have modified a little with contrast and levels, and then after using 2 adjustment black and white layers, here below is the comparison for you to see the difference

But the above one looks not realistic without a good lighting, and for this there is two options:

1 - Use the Side (up, left, top) colorness to give different shades of light to the cubes

2 - Modify the lighting in the source already with levels

For the example below I have used what is shown on the first post, and also then after have modified the lighting of each one using levels

Here is with bigger size to see better the details of the original panel with the rusted texture

This is an awesome filter that required a huge ammount of job. Thank you for sharing man.

oh wait..though..something finally start to appear
Most slowly opening filter what i've seen yet. He start to render after approximately several minutes after click to it (Its no bug ?)
Maybe it somewhat can be optimized ?
But anyway tnx.
