Very well done! Only tip I might have would be to experiment a bit with blending modes after you make your initial conversion. You can get some really interesting effects.
Excellent tip, TP! I tried it a little, but am stumbling around. I know Topaz has videos on it; I really should start watching them. Thank you so much!
I've been playing with converting images to black and white. I used Photoscape and Topaz Studio. Here's a few results. If anyone has any tips and tricks, I'd love to hear them.

I love them...good for you for trying new and different things!
