I like the idea of both your edits; however, the "missing" pants are a little distracting
I wonder if you could change their color before applying the effects so that they show up in the result? I'll explore later today or tomorrow.
Thanks for the topic!
Linda, the missing pants comment is pretty funny. I sent these examples to my brother in law and he was honest and said he didn't really care for them. He wants it to look more like a painting and he wants his face better defined. So, I guess I need to start anew. I don't mind his feedback. He's a great guy.
