Well, I'll just have to admit defeat on this one.
This effort is better, but understanding technique versus the execution of the technique are two different things. You'd need a Wacom Table to do this justice, and even if I dug mine out of storage, it's likely too old to work with my current setup. This is difficult to do with just a mouse.
This requires a bit more skill than the typical photo retouch/enhance I enjoy attempting these days.
@Igiloca, I hope one of the Gurus on the forum can take this on and deliver what you are looking for. Here's attempt #2, but it still has flaws.
