Studio Artist (by Synthetik) Vectorizer operations #1 Source
Following the previous post about going line by line in a sequence of operations, this is an exploration of some of the options in one operation; the Vectorizer.
The source image is an alien temple.
Exploring the options.
The Vectoriser's Generator tab with the first two options :
The Vectorizer source can be :
Current Layer (from the canvas)
+ to iterated on existing work
+ or to apply the structure of the current layer to a new source.
The photo of Amsterdam is on the canvas. This is used as the vectoriser structure and applied to the source image .
Source (from the selected source file)
+ The default option
The source image is impacted by the structure of theiimage itself and the other Vectorizer options.
Selection (from a selection)
+ I never really got this working as the results were just single colours filling the selection.
There may be another option which is need to make it work.
Texture Sythesizer
+ Select a Texture Synthesiser preset and optionally edit those setting.
The texture structure is applied to the image .
Style
+ Style is similar to a Canvas source but a bit more abstracted.
Style can be set from the menu; Canvas / Canvas to : Style.
Just noticed this. In menu File there is the Load Style command with options. The easiest option to understand is Loadstyle/Loadstyle image,. That images structure is applied to the source image.
This is a previous vectorised image used as a Source : Style
Studio Artist is like this mansion with a huge number of rooms with an incomplete map. Some rooms and corridors are explained but there are entire wings with just generalised directions which you need to explore yourself.
You are not always sure that you will end up in the location you originally wanted.
