Alien Skin Splat! Examples - Resurface
A look at Splat!, Alien Skin's newest special effects plug-in filter set.

Resurface
Resurface applies surface texture to any object or selection. Over 100 surface textures are included with Splat!, or you can use any seamlessly tiling grayscale JPEG as a surface texture. Options allow you to control the tile size, height scale (depth), light boost, and distortion of the underlying image in relation to the texture. Several controls allow you to adjust the lighting.


This hideous creation shows you eight different surface textures. One in each letter and one in each of the four quadrants of the background. Why Edge? That's a good question... I must have been listening to U2 when I created this. ;-)


Here resurface was used on the background and also on the photo. The torn edges effect and fill stamp were used to complete the image.
