Had a weird idea today. (Naturally being weird.) I have a Zebra desktop at the moment and was looking at it before I came on here. Thought, I wonder if it is possible to create people zebras! Like with the same kind of stripes all over their skin and still look like people. I have tried with a couple things but not there yet. Any how I am putting it out there for a challenge to anyone who wants to try or has done so in the past - Maybe show us.

Oh and please use this thread if you want to throw a challenge of some sort out there.


Third try

I did this just using a pattern and mask - masked off the areas I didn't want the pattern on. Oh and layer modes so you could still see some of the underlying markings. I think grain merge which changed the colour black to brown ;)
Anyone have any faster/better ideas?
Lyle? Wallace? Rod? Rich? ofnuts? David? anyone?

I'll supply the seamless zebra fur if that helps. :) Created this in Filter Forge 14 Pro. :bigthup

thankyou Rod. Pattern needs to wrap around the body curves and I still cannot figure out how to do that. I assume by using displace? but how?

Thanks!
It was fun and more of a challenge then I expected it to be.
I didn't go with the dark noise,
like in the AI's render.
:hehe
I think this challenge is worth a revisit for me.
:paint

Thnak you Lyle but I think /ai has got the best so far. Surely gimp can do better.

Not sure if the texture (link below; yes, shameless self promotion. lol) could be of use but just sharing some additional textures to try, Sallyanne. :)
