a tribute and my humble contribution
of brushes, scripts and information for
the GNU Image Manipulation Program

Script-Fu -> Pencil Sketch BW






This is a non-adjustable script (just option to merge layers or not when complete.)

Based on....
pencil-sketch.scm by Jeff Trefftzs
but with a custom pattern and very specific, altered settings


It does an exceptional job of sketching smaller portraits for web and phone distribution -- also does a nice job opn graphics...
a big plus for me !
