Yeah, the tree is quite large. The church is contemplating removing/replacing it or ch pping it way back. I think they would be better served leaving it, but it's theirs to do with as they please...
It was actually a 3 step process to the final product; Photo>Trace in Freestyle>Final render/touchup in Impression.
Depending on what happens with Freestyle and/or Impression it might all be done in Freestyle. Currently, raster object frames remain visible in Freestyle, so it's a no go right now.
