Paint Effect in Gimp 2.10 FAQs
Can I apply the paint effect to any image?
Yes, you can, but I would suggest resizing larger images before applying the G’Mic filter and this process can take a long time to complete on large file sizes. I suggest resizing an image to 1920 x 1080 pixels.
Can I create the effect with G’Mic Plugin?
In theory, you can recreate this same effect in GIMP without using the G’Mic plugin, but it would take multiple edits to the image to achieve the same effect you can apply with a single mouse click!
