GEGL filter that makes Basic Pencil Drawings

[contrast_]

Filter works best in Solid color backgrounds. It looks like crap if a lot of information is going on in the background.

@MareroQ will likely chime in with a Windows build port.

Good work, contrast_. I will like to create Gegl plugin, but I don't know how. Maybe you can post the basics?

Version for Gimp-2.10.30 Win 64 Bit attached.
Place the file in Gegl plugins in a directory: ... \lib\gegl-0.4\

In menu Tools➤GEGL Operation➤Pencil drawing


We have cli345 on the forum - a comic book style master and Gegl Graph expert - maybe he will suggest something or join this game?

All I am doing is stitching more simple gegl operations together. look at my .c files on github and gegl.org and maybe you'll get the hang of it.

Hello,

Here is yet another pencil gegl graph:

Code:

noise-reduction
domain-transform n-iterations=5
difference-of-gaussians radius1=1 radius2=0.33
gray
levels in-low=0.004 in-high=0.009
invert-gamma
rgb-clip
noise-reduction


Here are examples:

Have fun!

I can try to make this into a filter and give you full credit for discovering the algorithm.

levels
domain transform
and difference of gaussian

will have sliders. Everything else will be hidden.

I make a filter that uses your algorithm and it will replace my gegl:pencil

This works on images even with complex backgrounds so i will have to change the description

gegl:pencil has had a major overhaul. cli345 gets the credit. This algorithm unlike mine works in noisy backgrounds


MareroQ will have to recompile for Windows. lol

New version for Gimp-2.10.30 Win 64 Bit attached.
Nice collaboration

I'm quite impressed by this GEGL drawing filter, comparing with G'MIC (sketch or pencil filters), this GEGL is a winner for me (even though I don't use those type of filters).


I got few problem, tough, but the filter still work once I closed the GIMP window's bug

I will be removing the remove color mode from GEGL:photo2cartoon because this filter literally does that but better.

I don't want to fuse the two filters as gegl:pencil is much faster loading then gegl:photo2cartoon.
