Did this image a long time ago... it is not difficult if you have good
software to help you, instead of crappy software that makes your job more
difficult.

They certainly have a more hand drawn feel to them than a lot of the
amateur examples you see. They are obviously not just examples of
playing around with filter settings to get the look and feel you wanted.
You must have actually looked at non-computer generated examples of
the visual effect you wanted to reproduce and developed a way to
accomplish that.

It is done with software. It is not a totally hand drawn image, but it does
give a very nice hand drawn effect. It does take some actual skill, so not
just anyone can do it, but is fairly easy once you know how to do it.

Acted like a real nice guy. I do not remember the show too much. I had
a lotta homelessness in the 70's.
Mom had the cops throw me out of the house when I was 13. And they
locked me up for going to see Steppenwolf play Born to be Wild July 4,
1976, Foghats, Fool for the City concert.

But it was one of the reason why I wanted to learn to paint. Gotta
Visual degree but am still competing against illegal aliens for a
painting job.

If my true calling is civil war-- Let it bleed. Painting with the red
white and blue seems fine enough for me.

I wanna do it sober. Not with goobernment religious drugs.

Looks like you just went over the picture with a smudge brush using a
pen tablet with variable opacity, possibly with a kind of reverse
masking effect over the top (ie putting a plain white canvas over the
top of the original image and then smudge deleting over it

That one and the other one aren't really very good, you just used a
pen tablet (or made yourself work harder than you needed to with a
mouse) and then just used a variety of brush effects in different
colors on a layer over the top of the original image with some kind of
layer blending form...and then you possibly put another white layer on
the bottom and then either faded out the middle layer, blurred
sections of it, or possibly deleted sections of it, possibly also
removed the original color.

Basically nothing too technically complex, although at least the mine
one doesn't look like your usual default filter crap.

I think "cranky pants" is more appropriate. Anger is more of an adult
