the "cat" of my previous posts, as it comes out using the last release; you may compare with those posted before suffixed "asis"

Beautiful - ran most recent updated plugin with Ballpark - desaturated top - that's it. Thank you dinasset.

Thanks Dalia.
The update has enhanced a bit the outcome, so that less interventions are needed afterwards.
Still to be experimented....

Another attempt with the new improved filter!

thanks Pat.
Just a small note: if you let "Paint1" as Gimpressionist preset then the user preset is not taken into account.
I see here in the title Paint1 and BallparkSmall, both are presets defined by me, and only one is applied.
If you want to use a non-predefined-by-me preset you have to set "user preset", then enter a name of a standard gimpressionist preset or one defined/stored by yourself

example of what said above
