Would you have any idea what he set the cubism G'MIC settings to?

I did translate it to English.

Thanks for to info on the modes. that is a big help.

I would need to play with the setting,
but I guess you can do the same just as well as I can.
It does mention in the tutorial that you should "play" with the setting.
I also didn't notice any settings in the tutorial for this G'MIC effect.

I could give it a shot.
I have to admit. You guys are the pros. I learn from you guys. I often wonder how in the world you figured the things you do.

You guys are the best!

I am learning a lot from your work. Just not good and the small details.

This is what I came up with following the tutorial.
I must say,
it wasn't easy.
Give the awfully poor translation of the tut into English.

I'm posting the XCF file,
if anyone would like to examine it.

Wow!
I will have to give it a try. Thank you.
I will have to mess with the setting.

Yeah, give it a go. :bigthup

What I did isn't perfect by any means,
but it pretty close.

Wallace I did my best but the result is quite far from yours. I have not been able to make the halo or a translucent contour. I haven't seen any tut to do it, only I tried to make your images from your xcf file.

The "halo" is made using a layer mask, during the first few steps.
The tutorial isn't easy to follow, but I feel you did very well regardless Issabella.

Thank you so much Wallace, I'll try it again.

Wallace,
Why do you not have a layer mask the to instructions. I tried to do it your way without success.
I will give it another try.
I do like yours. How can we make the middle divide line not so sharp?

I did use layer masks, but I applied them to the layers.
I didn't think about how to make the dividing line less apparent.
That could also be done when the layer mask is first added to both color layers.
