Ehh, don't mean to offend, but i think you blurred the face a bit too much, too obvious. Still feel Zerstorer did a better job in making the porcelain effect...

Actually I gave the answer long ago.
I merely used Neatimage at default settings to recreate the exact same effect that Castlesinthesky wanted in the first post.

I think moonman26 did the same, but using reduced settings so that the effect isn't so strong for a more natural result.

This is still difficult for PS newbie. where is the manu entry for "Neatimage"? Sorry, I am a bit slow.
