New, much improved version of "Metalwork" filter provide built-in source smoothing and now is based on Mr. Smith™ chopping engine for 3D depth control (see example of Mr. Smith™ engine in action at the right preview)
With a variety of colorization modes (grey, source image, false color rainbow, two color gradations) this plug-in filter gives you the capability to turn virtually any picture into nice 3D shiny metal object. "Wrap-around" working mode allows to process tileable images in a "seamless" manner, without destroying the edge:
# before | # after
Above is a table with two cells, filled with a source seamless pattern (left) and the pattern passed through "Metalwork II" with "Across edges" option turned on. Although the filter involves some pixel movement, it proceeds "across" the image - every pixel trying to "fall" after the right edge appears at the left edge etc. As a result, the picture remains perfectly seamless.
