"Shigeo Fukuda's Mona Lisa" style?

I guess it could be called the "Shigeo Fukuda Monochromic style" 😁. It was made in 1970 , I wonder what software he used? 🙃

The more I look at this type of line art the more it looks like a halftone / engraving  effect but with more possibilities because the line pattern can be created by the user.

I think this can be the very first tutorial I publish.

@Djisves Go for it. Does anyone know the name of this type of effect applied to illustrations?

A simple method that works surprisingly well is:

 

Yes! This is a much easier method. Mine involved several layers using Paste Alpha, Gaussian Blur, Color inversions, Changing layers modes to Reflect, Overlay, Level adjustments... It was a trial and error method, that is why I got lost.

Hi Carla,

That is a cool effect. I think I managed to achieve something that looks like the art effect you need but the thing is that I do not remember how I did it ( I am getting old and my short memory is not good anymore).

[Vanishing Trails]

@MJW Thank you! I like this effect. It is exactly what I requested a few years back. 🍎

Added some more changes to Edge Fade. It now respect the boundary of distance. Meaning your image will not disappear.

 

Thanks, that is a big improvement. The new version renders much faster

Thanks @Foxxey, It works pretty well now.

For anyone that tried the Edge fade filter, is it too slow?

 

I also had a "Preview Timeout". Perhaps because I have a very old PC it took over 5 minutes to render once I pressed the OK button. I am very impressed by the final result but frustrated by the time it took.

the only solution is to put each letter in a separate layer and move them. 

Yes, that is the way to go.

Yes, but i want to Enlarge a calque (layer) , not all image without blur.

If you have multiple layers, you can not enlarge just one layer.

I could probably add a rotation option to the Tartan plugin.

I like this option  

[Creating a diagonal line pattern with a repeating array of colours]

Hello @Kantoi, there is a plugin that creates plaid patterns by adding colors, it is called Tartan. It does not create diagonal lines but perhaps @toe_head2001 can help.

[Dust scatter Help]

Another idea.

1. Create a layer behind your text.

2. Use the Cloud effect with the secondary color transparent. 

3. Use a large brush to erase unwanted parts of the cloud.

4. Apply noise.

@Reptillian Thank you for all the time and enthusiasm given to all of us. We will miss you but life must go on. Wish you best on your new venture. 

[Cannot open some JPG files]

Hello, you need to give more information about your problem. I never had a Blue Screen error with Paint.net. Perhaps there is a problem with your windows system.  Whatever it is, you need to give more information so someone can take a look at your problem.

Hello @null54 ,

 

Would it be possible to add an option to choose the width and height so the tiles will not be all square?

1)Is there a way to automatically draw a circle with a number / text inside it, without drawing before circles and then characters? 

 

It sounds like you need a label creator.

 

A label creator with different shapes and borders and adjustable text would be a great addition to the text effects.

 

In the mean time you can use Speech bubble . It is a plugin that can help you draw an ellipse or a rectangle with rounded corners. It is possible to type text inside the shape but if you want it adjusted to the center you will have to adjust it manually.
