Time	Narration
00:18	Welcome to the spoken tutorial of Meet The GIMP.
00:21	My Name is Rolf Steinort and i am recording this in Bremen, Northern Germany.
00:27	In the beginning I will do something that I always forget to mention.
00:34	I always forget to save the image before doing anything to it.
00:45	So I go to File, Save as and save this as
01:05	comic.xcf
01:12	‘xcf’ is the Gimp native file format and it keeps all the layers information in the file.
01:22	Never save anything in Gimp as JPEG or tif or so, if you want to work further with it.
01:30	You can export from there to every format you want to but for anything you want to do further work with, use XCF.
01:45	So what to do? 1st thing I have to clear up this image a bit.
01:59	There are two problems here, 1st the guy behind me.
02:15	And 2nd is this clutter below here.
02:21	This statue here is very well placed and I think, it is one of the corner points of this image.
02:31	So let me 1st take away this stuff here.
02:36	So I zoom into the image and select the Pen Tool.
02:50	This is best done by Cloning Tool and I don’t have to work very precise here because all this little stuff will vanish in the final image.
03:05	So i select the clone tool and change the size of the pen.
03:13	Now I press Ctrl and Click to get a starting point and now I simply start to paint.
03:24	But before starting that i change the Overlay mode to Normal mode, opacity to 100 and now let’s start painting.
03:42	Image get's a little bit cloudy so i select another brush to paint.
03:57	And now I go here to the border and paint.
04:37	So the guy is gone.
04:41	That leaves the clutter here.
04:44	I want to keep the flower pot here but this stuff here has to go.
05:03	I will take care of this border of the flower pot in a moment.
05:24	If I would keep this image in this way, you would see the traces of cloning but they will vanish when I switch on the comic mode.
05:43	So now lets do a bit about the flower pot here.
06:06	I think i should clone from this point.
06:26	It doesn't look very convincing in this zoom step but I think it will work.
06:34	The comic image basically consist of three parts.
06:39	1st there are the black patches or dark patches with no colours, which gives structure to the image.
06:50	Then there are the lines which defines forms and items in the image.
06:57	And then there is colour and we will start as in the tutorial with the patches.
07:04	And for that
07:15	I double this layer and call it ink.
07:25	I select the Threshold tool and click into the image and pull the info window into the image.
07:37	You see here the image is black and white.
07:43	This tool divides the image into black and white.
07:48	If the pixel is lighter than at the moment 82 then the combination of average value of red, green and blue is white.
08:02	And if the level is below 82 it becomes black.
08:14	Now we face the 1st problem here.
08:19	When I draw this slider around the effect is very dark.
08:26	This value here 129 would be nice for the left part of my face, the shoulder and for the statue.
08:40	This would be nice for the eyes here
08:48	And this for other eye.
08:53	Now i have to use different ink layer for this image.
09:01	So lets start from the lighter side, like this one here and go back into the image to 100%.
09:14	I double this here and select the threshold tool and pull this slider down.
09:29	But before that i have to make the top layer invisible.
09:46	I think this value is good for this part of the face.
09:56	I make a copy of this layer and make it visible and now I am working on this layer.
10:08	I have to look for the middle terms here.
10:13	This part of the face, I think this works quite good so i look around in the image.
10:23	The statue is fine too.
10:26	This image has a good definition here and near my hand the line is invisible and that is called optical illusion
10:41	I think this is fine and it should be in the image.
10:49	Now i select the Threshold tool make the line here visible and look at the bright parts to get little bit of definition So i slide this up.
11:08	This looks better.
11:12	Now I have 3 copies of my ink layer.
11:17	1st is ink light .
11:28	Top layer is ink dark.
11:34	And lets name the middle layer simply ink.
11:40	Now lets look at the 3 layers and decide which one is to use mostly.
11:49	I think ink layer is a good base, because this is too light and this is too dark.
12:01	So I put this layer in the bottom and I add a layer mask to the dark layer and the light layer.
12:12	I add a layer mask in black which is fully transparent.
12:18	So everything here gets invisible.
12:26	When I draw white on this layer mask of the light layer, the image will be revealed in it.
12:45	So I select the brush tool here with normal mode and opacity 100%.
12:55	I think I shall use a hard brush and the pressure sensitivity should be the Size, so when I press the pen on the surface the dot will be larger.
13:20	My foreground colour is white.
13:24	So lets start
13:28	I think the left part of the face should be brightened.
13:34	I press 1 to zoom into the image.
13:39	I think this brush is too small, so i scale this a bit up.
13:53	That looks better.
14:00	But perhaps it is too bright.
14:05	This has to be either black or white.
14:47	So i switch the colours with ‘X’ key and paint this over again here.
14:57	But i think i can leave this out here and put the next layer above that.
15:14	Now we are more concern about the areas and about the structure, so I should forget about the lines and just look at the structure here.
15:30	Simply leave it as it is.
15:34	I can add another layer easily and now i paint for the dark parts with the white colour.
15:44	Lets see if I can reveal here a little bit.
15:51	I think this is too much.
15:56	I want to make the face a bit darker.
16:08	And here also.
16:19	I think that’s too dark.
16:31	Here there is some work still to be done but I will leave it to this here and look at it after I am done with the next step with the lines and then I can adjust here.
16:46	This has to be brightened up.
16:49	So we'll look at the edit there.
16:53	In this step i have to add some lines and this can be done by doubling the background layer and putting it on top and naming it lines.
17:08	The lines are the edges between different colours.
17:15	So i go to Filters, then we have edge-detect, and here I have difference of Gaussians edge detect.
17:33	The relevant slider is the Radius and if you decrease the number the lines get finer.
17:45	If you increase the number the lines get wider and you get more of the details in the image.
17:56	I would prefer something around 10 but i can go to 30 and then decide where exactly i should stop.
18:10	When i go to 30 i dont get the edges but areas and 12 would give this here.
18:27	And I think I will settle at 10.
18:37	I set the layer mode of this layer to Multiply and for the colour rising I will later need to reduce the white in the image.
18:50	Now lets just checkout if we have got this right upto now.
18:56	So I will switch the lines layer on and off and you see here there is some definition when the line layer is on.
19:08	And now I de-select the dark ink layer and keep the light ink layer.
19:20	The structure that I wanted to have in with my dark ink layer is visible in the lines layer.
19:30	So I will leave the dark ink layer switched off.
19:42	I dont think there is a need to combine these layers here.
19:50	I will leave it as it is, so that i can change something and it will be in the final image.
20:09	Next step as I said I have to reduce the white channel here, and it can be done with the levels tool and I reduce the level upto 240.
20:28	When i switch off this layer you can see that I have a gray background and little bit of colour information in here.
20:40	For getting the colour in the image I copy the background layer and name it Colour and put it on top and set the layer mode to Colour.
21:00	But it doesnt look good so i should change the mode.
21:07	The image has got little bit of colour in here.
21:12	But I want more saturation so again i make the copy of background layer and name it Saturation.
21:24	I set the layer mode to Saturation .
21:29	I think this saturation mode already works and the effects are very good.
21:38	There should have been more flatness in the colour and the hand is not looking comic.
21:47	I will look where this comes from .
21:51	So I can now start to play with this sliders.
21:58	Going down with saturation, gets little bit flatter, and looks more like water colours, so this is a strange effect.
22:19	Now I can start to play with the layers here.
22:26	So I switch off the lines layer and you see here that this is not the effect from the lines but from colours and saturation.
22:39	Now I can make some adjustments because i still have the layers here.
22:47	I want to lighten the face, so I select my ink light layer, select a brush with white foreground colour.
23:12	I zoom into the image.
23:18	Reduce the size of the brush and scale it a bit and now I start to paint the eye here.
23:34	That's too much.
23:50	This looks better.
23:54	Now i paint in this part.
24:00	This is too much.
24:03	You can imagine there can be lot of modifications in here you can make in the image, by changing these areas here.
24:47	This is Ok.
24:51	You can do a lot of changes here and i dont know if i am on the right track.
25:01	But I like it upto now.
25:06	Let’s see what else we can do.
25:10	1st thing is we can use a different layer than the lines.
25:18	So I switch off the lines and I get very strange colours because now I have again a white background
25:31	So add another layer here and set it to white and use multiply mode and fill it with 240 grey.
25:52	Now I have got nearly the same image as with my lines here.
25:59	Let me switch them on.
26:03	I have the lines information coming out but this comic effect is still there and i can look what’s better.
26:21	Lets try some different tricks.
26:30	I double the colour and the saturation layer and do something with them.
26:39	Here I just try to get the details out of the image.
26:45	So go to Filters, Blur and Gaussian blur.
26:53	And here I choose a value which gives me nice effect.
27:08	You see that the colours has got little bit smoother.
27:18	So let's do this on the saturation copy also.
27:24	Go to Filters, Repeat Guassian Blur.
27:29	And now I have really flat image with flat colours.
27:36	So i switch on the original colour and I get a strange effect here.
27:44	Let's rename these layers as saturation blurred and the colour blurred.
28:04	If i combine the blurred saturation with the unblurred colour , i get some colours here which looks quite a bit strange.
28:16	I would like it, if it was not especially on the nose here.
28:22	So switching this back on and I have this effect here.
28:29	You can imagine if you reduce the blurring you get sharpe details.
28:37	This is a real play ground.
28:40	You have a lot of possibilities here like how to do this, what to do, what to tinker with.
28:50	Its really fun to do this.
29:09	The author of the original tutorial has done a tremendous job.
29:24	I am not so happy with both versions of this image.
29:31	I like the structure here and the flower, the statue and the pot here
29:40	I don’t like all the details near the hand and in the face, this could be little bit more flat.
29:49	In the blurred on I like the details in the face and near the hand but I don’t like the flower which is completely blurred away.
30:04	So now i can combine the two images and I will start with colour blurred because I like the over all appearance of this more than of the saturation blurred.
30:20	But I switch on all the layers and add layer mask to saturation blurred and colour blurred and I add a black layer mask fully transparent.
30:37	And now i'll start working on saturation layer mask so i select white as my foreground colour and select the paint brush here.
30:51	Now i start painting.
30:55	I just paint over the parts where I want to have little bit more flatness in the image.
31:04	This will look a bit strange because now I have the colour layer switched on.
31:46	So now i select everything by pressing Shift+ctrl+A and copy it by Ctrl + C, go into the image and press Ctrl + V and click on this Floating Selection and with Ctrl + H or with the anchor layer I have my copy here.
32:20	So you can copy these layer mask too and I think I will leave this image here.
32:32	I think it’s so quite nice example and in the end i play a bit with this sliders.
32:54	Lets recap this.
32:57	You first copy the image layer and make an inked image with threshold tool.
33:05	Look for areas which you want to have black or very dark.
33:10	Then you copy the base image again and make a line layer with the edge detect filter and then you set the layer mode to multiply.
33:29	In this layer you reduce the white to a gray about 240 with the levels tool.
33:42	Then you copy again the base image and make a colour layer.
33:49	Set the colour mode to colour.
33:56	And finally you copy the base layer last time and make a saturation layer and here you set the layer mode to saturation and now you play with the opacity of the different layers or at some layers.
34:20	Just play around. The results are well mixed but some are stunning.
34:32	For more information goto http://meetthegimp.org and to send a comment, please write to info@meetthegimp.org. Good bye.

 |-
-| 00.21
+| 00:21

 |-

 |-
-| 00.34

 |-
-| 00.45
+| 00:45
 |So I go to File, Save as and save this as

-| 01.05
+| 01:05
 | comic.xcf
 |-
-|01.12
+|01:12
 | ‘xcf’ is the Gimp native file format and it keeps all the layers information in the file.
 |-

 |-
-|01.45
+|01:45
 |So what to do? 1st thing  I have to clear up this image a bit.
 |-
-|01.59
+|01:59
 |There are two problems here, 1st the guy behind me.
 |-
-|02.15
+|02:15
 |And 2nd is this clutter below here.
 |-
-| 02.21
+| 02:21
 |This statue here is very well placed and I think, it is one of the corner points of this image.
 |-
-| 02.31
+| 02:31
 |So let me 1st take away this stuff here.
 |-
-| 02.36
+| 02:36
 |So I zoom into the image and select the Pen Tool.
 |-
-| 02.50
+| 02:50
 |This is best done by Cloning Tool and I don’t have to work very precise here because all this little stuff will vanish in the final image.
 |-
-| 03.05
+| 03:05
 |So i select the clone tool and change the size of the pen.
 |-
-| 03.13
+| 03:13
 | Now I press Ctrl and Click to get a starting point and now I simply start to paint.
 |-
-| 03.24
+| 03:24
 | But before starting that i change the Overlay mode to Normal mode, opacity to 100 and now let’s start painting.
 |-
-| 03.42
+| 03:42
 |Image get's a little bit cloudy so i select another brush to paint.
 |-
-| 03.57
+| 03:57
 |And now I go here to the border and paint.
 |-
-| 04.37
+| 04:37
 |So the guy is gone.
 |-
-| 04.41
+| 04:41
 |That leaves the clutter here.
 |-
-| 04.44
+| 04:44
 |I want to keep the flower pot here but this stuff here has to go.
 |-
-| 05.03
+| 05:03
 |I will take care of this border of the flower pot in a moment.
 |-
-|05.24
+|05:24
 |If I would keep this image in this way, you would see the traces of cloning but they will vanish when I switch on the comic mode.
 |-
-|05.43
+|05:43
 |So now lets do a bit about the flower pot here.
 |-
-| 06.06
+| 06:06
 |I think i should clone from this point.
 |-
-| 06.26
+| 06:26
 |It doesn't look very convincing in this zoom step but I think it will work.
 |-
-| 06.34
+| 06:34
 |The comic image basically consist of three parts.
 |-
-| 06.39
+| 06:39
 |1st there are the black patches or dark patches with no colours, which gives structure to the image.
 |-
-| 06.50
+| 06:50
 |Then there are the lines which defines forms and items in the image.
 |-
-| 06.57
+| 06:57
 |And then there is colour and we will start as in the tutorial with the patches.
 |-
-| 07.04
+| 07:04
 | And for that
 |-
-| 07.15
+| 07:15
 | I double this layer and call it ink.
 |-
-| 07.25
+| 07:25
 |I select the Threshold tool and click into the image and pull the info window into the image.
 |-
-| 07.37
+| 07:37
 |You see here the image is black and white.
 |-
-| 07.43
+| 07:43
 | This tool divides the image into black and white.
 |-
-| 07.48
+| 07:48
-|   If the pixel is lighter than at the moment 82 then the combination of average value of red, green and blue is white.
+|If the pixel is lighter than at the moment 82 then the combination of average value of red, green and blue is white.
 |-
-| 08.02
+| 08:02
 | And if the level is below 82 it becomes black.
 |-
-| 08.14
+| 08:14
 |Now we face the 1st problem here.
 |-
-| 08.19
+| 08:19
 |When I draw this slider around the effect is very dark.
 |-
-| 08.26
+| 08:26
 |This value here 129 would be nice for the left part of my face, the shoulder and for the statue.
 |-
-|08.40
+|08:40
 |This would be nice for the eyes here
 |-
-| 08.48
+| 08:48
 |And this for other eye.
 |-
-| 08.53
+| 08:53
 |Now i have to use different ink layer for this image.
 |-
-| 09.01
+| 09:01
 |So lets start from the lighter side, like this one here and go back into the image to 100%.
 |-
-| 09.14
+| 09:14
 | I double this here and select the threshold tool and pull this slider down.
 |-
-| 09.29
+| 09:29
 |  But before that i have to make the top layer invisible.
 |-
-| 09.46
+| 09:46
 |I think this value is good for this part of the face.
 |-
-|09.56
+|09:56
 | I make a copy of this layer and make it visible and now I am working on this layer.
 |-
-|10.08
+|10:08
 | I have to look for the middle terms here.
 |-
-|10.13
+|10:13
 |  This part of the face, I think this works quite good so i look around in the image.
 |-
-|10.23
+|10:23
 |The statue is fine too.
 |-
-|10.26
+|10:26
 | This image has a good definition here and near my hand the line is invisible and that is called optical illusion
 |-
-|10.41
+|10:41
 | I think this is fine and it should be in the image.
 |-
-|10.49
+|10:49
 |Now i select the Threshold tool make the line here visible and look at the bright parts to get little bit of definition So i slide this up.
 |-
-|11.08
+|11:08
 |This looks better.
 |-
-|11.12
+|11:12
 |Now I have 3 copies of my ink layer.
 |-
-|11.17
+|11:17
 |1st is ink light .
 |-
-| 11.28
+| 11:28
 |Top layer is ink dark.
 |-
-| 11.34
+| 11:34
 |And lets name the middle layer simply ink.
 |-
-| 11.40
+| 11:40
 |Now lets look at the 3 layers and decide which one is to use mostly.
 |-
-|11.49
+|11:49
 |I think ink layer is a good base, because this is too light and this is too dark.
 |-
-|12.01
+|12:01
 |So I put this layer in the bottom and I add a layer mask to the dark layer and the light layer.
 |-
-|12.12
+|12:12
 | I add a layer mask in black which is fully transparent.
 |-
-|12.18
+|12:18
 |So everything here gets invisible.
 |-
-| 12.26
+| 12:26
 | When I draw white on this layer mask of the light layer, the image will be revealed in it.
 |-
-| 12.45
+| 12:45
 | So I select the brush tool here with normal mode and opacity 100%.
 |-
-| 12.55
+| 12:55
 | I think I shall use a hard brush and the pressure sensitivity should be the Size, so when I press the pen on the surface the dot will be  larger.
 |-
-| 13.20
+| 13:20
 |My foreground colour is white.
 |-
-| 13.24
+| 13:24
 | So lets start
 |-
-| 13.28
+| 13:28
 |I think the left part of the face should be brightened.
 |-
-| 13.34
+| 13:34
 |I press 1 to zoom into the image.
 |-
-| 13.39
+| 13:39
 |I think this brush is too small,  so i scale this a bit up.
 |-
-| 13.53
+| 13:53
 |That looks better.
 |-
-| 14.00
+| 14:00
 |But perhaps it is too bright.
 |-
-| 14.05
+| 14:05
 |This has to be either black or white.
 |-
-| 14.47
+| 14:47
 |So i switch the colours with ‘X’ key and paint this over again here.
 |-
-| 14.57
+| 14:57
 | But i think i can leave this out here and put the next layer above that.
 |-
-| 15.14
+| 15:14
 | Now we are more concern about the areas and about the structure, so I should forget about the lines and just look at the structure here.
 |-
-| 15.30
+| 15:30
 |Simply leave it as it is.
 |-
-| 15.34
+| 15:34
 |I can add another layer easily and now i paint for the dark parts with the white colour.
 |-
-| 15.44
+| 15:44
 | Lets see if I can reveal here a little bit.
 |-
-| 15.51
+| 15:51
 | I think this is too much.
 |-
-| 15.56
+| 15:56
 |I want to make the face a bit darker.
 |-
-| 16.08
+| 16:08
 |And here also.
 |-
-| 16.19
+| 16:19
 |I think that’s too dark.
 |-
-| 16.31
+| 16:31
 | Here there is some work still to be done but I will leave it to this here and look at it after I am done with the next step with the lines and then I can adjust here.
 |-
-| 16.46
+| 16:46
 | This has to be brightened up.
 |-
-| 16.49
+| 16:49
 |So we'll look at the edit there.
 |-
-| 16.53
+| 16:53
 |In this step i have to add some lines and this can be done by doubling the background layer and putting it on top and naming it lines.
 |-
-| 17.08
+| 17:08
 |The lines are the edges between different colours.
 |-
-| 17.15
+| 17:15
 |So i go to Filters, then we have edge-detect, and here I have difference of Gaussians edge detect.
 |-
-| 17.33
+| 17:33
 |The relevant slider is the Radius and if you decrease the number the lines get finer.
 |-
-| 17.45
+| 17:45
 |If you increase the number the lines get wider and you get more of the details in the image.
 |-
-| 17.56
+| 17:56
 |I would prefer something around 10 but i can go to 30 and then decide where exactly i should stop.
 |-
-| 18.10
+| 18:10
 |When i go to 30 i dont get the edges but areas and 12 would give this here.
 |-
-| 18.27
+| 18:27
 |And I think I will settle at 10.
 |-
-| 18.37
+| 18:37
 |I set the layer mode of this layer to Multiply and for the colour rising I will later need to reduce the white in the image.
 |-
-| 18.50
+| 18:50
 |Now lets just checkout if we have got this right upto now.
 |-
-| 18.56
+| 18:56
 |So I will switch the lines layer on and off and you see here there is some definition when the line layer is on.
 |-
-| 19.08
+| 19:08
 |And now I de-select the dark ink layer and keep the light ink layer.
 |-
-| 19.20
+| 19:20
 |The structure that I wanted to have in with my dark ink layer is visible in the lines layer.
 |-
-| 19.30
+| 19:30
 |So I will leave the dark ink layer switched off.
 |-
-| 19.42
+| 19:42
 |I dont think there is a need to combine these layers here.
 |-
-| 19.50
+| 19:50
 |I will leave it as it is, so that i can change something and it will be in the final image.
 |-
-| 20.09
+| 20:09
 |Next step as I said I have to reduce the white channel here, and it can be done with the levels tool and I reduce the level upto 240.
 |-
-| 20.28
+| 20:28
 |When i switch off this layer you can see that I have a gray background and little bit of colour information in here.
 |-
-| 20.40
+| 20:40
 |For getting the colour in the image I copy the background layer and name it Colour and put it on top and set the layer mode to Colour.
 |-
-| 21.00
+| 21:00
 |But it doesnt look good so i should change the mode.
 |-
-| 21.07
+| 21:07
 |The image has got little bit of colour in here.
 |-
-| 21.12
+| 21:12
 | But I want more saturation so again i make the copy of background layer and name it Saturation.
 |-
-| 21.24
+| 21:24
 |I set the layer mode to Saturation .
 |-
-| 21.29
+| 21:29
 |I think this saturation mode already works and the effects are very good.
 |-
-| 21.38
+| 21:38
 | There should have been more flatness in the colour and the hand is not looking comic.
 |-
-| 21.47
+| 21:47
 | I will look where this comes from .
 |-
-| 21.51
+| 21:51
 | So I can now start to play with this sliders.
 |-
-| 21.58
+| 21:58
 | Going down with saturation, gets little bit flatter, and looks more like water colours, so this is a strange effect.
 |-
-| 22.19
+| 22:19
 |Now I can start to play with the layers here.
 |-
-| 22.26
+| 22:26
 |So I switch off the lines layer and you see here that this is not the effect from the lines but from colours and saturation.
 |-
-| 22.39
+| 22:39
 |Now I can make some adjustments because i still have the layers here.
 |-
-| 22.47
+| 22:47
 |I want to lighten the face, so I select my ink light layer, select a brush with white foreground colour.
 |-
-| 23.12
+| 23:12
 |I zoom into the image.
 |-
-| 23.18
+| 23:18
 |Reduce the size of the brush and scale it a bit and now I start to paint the eye here.
 |-
-| 23.34
+| 23:34
 |That's too much.
 |-
-| 23.50
+| 23:50
 |This looks better.
 |-
-| 23.54
+| 23:54
 |Now i paint in this part.
 |-
-| 24.00
+| 24:00
 |This is too much.
 |-
-| 24.03
+| 24:03
 |You can imagine there can be lot of modifications in here you can make in the image, by changing these areas here.
 |-
-| 24.47
+| 24:47
 |This is Ok.
 |-
-| 24.51
+| 24:51
 |You can do a lot of changes here and i dont know if i am on the right track.
 |-
-| 25.01
+| 25:01
 | But I like it upto now.
 |-
-| 25.06
+| 25:06
 | Let’s see what else we can do.
 |-
-| 25.10
+| 25:10
 |  1st thing is we can use a different layer than the lines.
 |-
-| 25.18
+| 25:18
 |So I switch off the lines and I get very strange colours because now I have again a white background
 |-
-| 25.31
+| 25:31
 |So add another layer here and set it to white and use multiply mode and fill it  with 240 grey.
 |-
-| 25.52
+| 25:52
 |Now I have got nearly the same image as with my lines here.
 |-
-| 25.59
+| 25:59
 | Let me switch them on.
 |-
-| 26.03
+| 26:03
 |I have the lines information coming out but this comic effect is still there and i can look what’s better.
 |-
-| 26.21
+| 26:21
 |Lets try some different tricks.
 |-
-| 26.30
+| 26:30
 |I double the colour and the saturation layer and do something with them.
 |-
-| 26.39
+| 26:39
 |Here I just try to get the details out of the image.
 |-
-| 26.45
+| 26:45
 |So go to Filters, Blur and Gaussian blur.
 |-
-| 26.53
+| 26:53
 |And here I choose a value which gives me nice effect.
 |-
-| 27.08
+| 27:08
 |You see that the colours has got little bit smoother.
 |-
-| 27.18
+| 27:18
 | So let's do this on the saturation copy also.
 |-
-| 27.24
+| 27:24
 | Go to Filters, Repeat Guassian Blur.
 |-
-| 27.29
+| 27:29
 |And now I have really flat image with flat colours.
 |-
-| 27.36
+| 27:36
 |So i switch on the original colour and I get a strange effect here.
 |-
-| 27.44
+| 27:44
 | Let's rename these layers as saturation blurred and the colour blurred.
 |-
-| 28.04
+| 28:04
 |If i combine the blurred saturation with the unblurred colour , i get some colours here which looks quite a bit strange.
 |-
-| 28.16
+| 28:16
 |I would like it, if it was not especially on the nose here.
 |-
-| 28.22
+| 28:22
 |So switching this back on and I have this effect here.
 |-
-| 28.29
+| 28:29
 |You can imagine if you reduce the blurring you get sharpe details.
 |-
-| 28.37
+| 28:37
 |This is a real play ground.
 |-
-| 28.40
+| 28:40
 | You have a lot of possibilities here like how to do this, what to do, what to tinker with.
 |-
-| 28.50
+| 28:50
 | Its really fun to do this.
 |-
-| 29.09
+| 29:09
 |The author of the original tutorial has done a tremendous job.
 |-
-| 29.24
+| 29:24
 |I am not so happy with both versions of this image.
 |-
-| 29.31
+| 29:31
 | I like the structure here and the flower, the statue and the pot here
 |-
-| 29.40
+| 29:40
 | I don’t like all the details near the hand and in the face, this could be little bit more flat.
 |-
-| 29.49
+| 29:49
 |In the blurred on I like the details in the face and near the hand but I don’t like the flower which is completely blurred away.
 |-
-| 30.04
+| 30:04
 |So now i can combine the two images and I will start with colour blurred because I like the over all appearance of this more than of the saturation blurred.
 |-
-| 30.20
+| 30:20
 |But I switch on all the layers and add layer mask to saturation blurred and colour blurred and I add a black layer mask fully transparent.
 |-
-| 30.37
+| 30:37
 |And now i'll start working on saturation layer mask so i select white as my foreground colour and select the paint brush here.
 |-
-| 30.51
+| 30:51
 | Now i start painting.
 |-
-| 30.55
+| 30:55
 |I just paint over the parts where I want to have little bit more flatness in the image.
 |-
-| 31.04
+| 31:04
 |This will look a bit strange because now I have the colour layer switched on.
 |-
-| 31.46
+| 31:46
 |So now i select everything by pressing Shift+ctrl+A and copy it by Ctrl + C, go into the image and press Ctrl + V and click on this Floating Selection and with Ctrl + H or with the anchor layer I have my copy here.
 |-
-| 32.20
+| 32:20
 |So you can copy these layer mask too and I think I will leave this image here.
 |-
-| 32.32
+| 32:32
 |I think it’s so quite nice example and in the end i play a bit with this sliders.
 |-
-| 32.54
+| 32:54
 |Lets recap this.
 |-
-| 32.57
+| 32:57
 |You first copy the image layer and make  an ''inked''  image with threshold tool.
 |-
-| 33.05
+| 33:05
 |Look for areas which you want to have black or very dark.
 |-
-| 33.10
+| 33:10
 |Then you copy the base image again and make a line layer with the edge detect filter and then you set the layer mode to multiply.
 |-
-| 33.29
+| 33:29
 |In this layer you reduce the white to a gray about 240 with the levels tool.
 |-
-| 33.42
+| 33:42
 |Then you copy again the base image and make a colour layer.
 |-
-| 33.49
+| 33:49
 |Set the colour mode to colour.
 |-
-| 33.56
+| 33:56
 |And finally you copy the base layer last time and make a saturation layer and here you set the layer mode to saturation and now you play with the opacity of the different layers or at some layers.
 |-
-| 34.20
+| 34:20
 | Just play around. The results are well mixed but some are stunning.
