Did PhotoComix's method on this car. Duplicated the results, did BWSketch and ran the GEGL Operation on those results, Layer mode multiply again, lowered the opacity and merged it down.

Got the original image here: http://pics4.city-data.com/cpicc/cfiles5950.jpg



Original image Used GEGL on a BWSketch layer, set the layer mode to Saturation, Opacity 65. Saturation mode gave it a faint sepia color.

That is so awesome, a kerosene run tractor cooled by oil...go figure. =)
Thanks for the information on it!
Also that is way neat you found another image of it.

I think instead of the horse and buggy i will use the Allendale tractor as the old B&W part of the panorama.
With your permission i would like to add that description of it at the bottom.

Those images look real cool with that filter, nice job you guys!

Oregonian they are all nice i specially like that slightly colored on the last page

i am really fascinated by the look and posture of the drivers in the first photo ..with no protection of sort from crash or even dust and rain

That description is on the website that 2-Ton put the link for in her post. It's not my description. AFAIC, use it.

That color appeared when I was browsing the layer modes and the Saturation mode made it that color.

It is unusual. The back looks like it may have a cover that can be pulled up like old convertibles used to have. The drivers may be out of luck, but then again perhaps there is a cover somewhere we are not seeing.

Seat belts came a long time later.

i am very happy with this water steam tractor

same routine a 1 layer c2g, 1 gmic sketch, 1 gmic pencil to mix
and when happy the original on top in color mode but very low opacity

Oh, I like that PC! Very nice.

I tried my hand at a rusty piece of farm equipment I found here.

After doing the GEGL operation it was much darker.



It's dark because I forgot to lower the opacity on the GEGL layer. Here it is at opacity 65%.



Another one. This one I ran color temperature in gegl to make the picture not so yellowish. Original here

i like all of them !
On my monitor the darker is not too dark but the other is fine too !

I love the look of the rusty farm equip...especially the second pic. Looks very much like an ink and water color picture.

Those are all great! =)

Very good all this old vehicles.nicely done!I see that Gmic has very big likeliness.

Another Combination ?
BW pencil + BW Dither (that is in Gmic color menu )



i am a bit uncertain on use of dithering (it may do weird things then watching images at different scale ) but here seems working well

EDIT ARG!

Looks fine on my PC not here , here popped out that sort of moire effect i was fearing (Do you see a sort of little squares patten ? or white crosses between the dithering points ...something similar to jpg "mosaicize" artfacts
weird that happens also at same the png to see if something change...no nothing change no luck

OREGONIAN GEOTUX...how to remove 1 allegate ? ,,ah ok solved now

this more then a Vapor Tractor look to me as the lost secret weapon developed by the Confederate Army during Secession War :

...a sort of steampunk vapor cannon that could shoot beams of deadly infrasound
( luckily was finished too late ... )

oh well day dreaming on secret steampunk lethal weapons from end of 1800...anyway this tractor is a bit strange

Oooh!!!!!!! I like!!!! We can use it to shoot dangerous space aliens with infrasound.

Here in Oregon there was a lot of logging going on in the past (still have logging but more controlled). Much of the logging equipment was deserted and is still found in the forests.

This is a donkey. Original image here.

Wiki article about the donkey.



Another donkey. Original image.

I found I could change the color in BWPencil. Move the Saturation slider all the way to the right, then move the hue button and find the color you want. Move the Saturation back until you get the color you want.

the b/w old car picture has a really interesting looking texture

All of these images are sweeeeeeet! Excellent work everyone. I have some photos of older vehicles and will post them when I have loacted the images. (I have about 50-75 CD's and DVD's that I am organizing)

the donkey come out very well,
The bw remind me some illustration from old book

yes i know of the Hue and saturaction sliders it s cool but i do not use much,

instead i added in the GMIC wishlist (http://www.flickr.com/groups/gmic/discu ... 211269502/ ) a request for pencil and sketch filter to have as option not a white but a transparent BG

You guys are awesome with that G'MIC plugin. =)
I can see the squares between the dithering especially at the very top PhotoComix ... very cool effect!
Maybe one of you guys can create one with an added gradient.I bet that would look neat.

O that donkey looks like someones old moonshine still. I wonder if the farmers around there used some of them for that? =P

Oregonian
your last image fooled me, even if you wrote about donkey

Somehow i saw some kind of boat there :
a sort of steam powered wooden raft, only now looking in the link i got what it was

I wouldn't be surprised, Rod.

As far as I know, moonshining is still going on. When the "revenuers" find it, some of it gets bottled in canning jars and sold in the liquor stores here as white lightning. Here in Oregon you can only buy hard liquor in a state operated liquor store. I think anything over 20% alcohol is sold there. Grocery stores sell beer and wine.
