Squirrel kit

Textured and fracted.
This started as a "pure" image of a very cute little fellow. I tried, with the filters, to enhance the "cute" factor with softness -hope it worked!

That is awfully cute! Whatever magic you worked on this, it really brought out the details in this little guy's fur. Nice work.

I think this is a perfect use of the fract filter. My favorite one so far any way. Cute to a t. I like that the background is smoother.

This looks straight out of a Disney movie or a children's book - really nice implementation

You do a great job picking the right images for this process.

I hope you don't mind my saying this, but the cute squirrel looks like he swallowed too many hair growth hormones. Hopefully, the other squirrels won't make fun of him...but, he's lookin a tad rejected and wondering about those whiskers. I think he and Roudolf the Red Nose need to get together and form a support group. Ok...turning the corner, this really is cute...the fur and the bold clear eye work well together. Nicely done.

Ken, all the whiskers are originals. Fract doesn't add things, it only works with what is there.
Thanks for the comments !
