Presenting Lucy Starkiller! (If you get the joke in the name, you are probably even geekier than me.) Lucy Starkiller is an action for Photoshop that will give your photos the "LucisArts look" without any extra software. It is also available as a script for Paint Shop Pro. It produces identical results in both programs.
Lucy Starkiller is simply the most cost effective and easiest way to get the "LucisArts" look without spending a fortune or having to learn any complicated plugin software.
I am 100% certain that you will be pleased!
Lucy Starkiller has several advantages over the LucisArt plug-in:
- Available for both Photoshop CS3 and Paint Shop Pro X2 (it has not been tested, and is not guaranteed to work in older versions).
- Works on all versions of Windows and Macintosh that can run Photoshop CS3 or Paint Shop Pro X2.
- One click operation, no guess work, nothing to learn, if you know how to click a mouse, you already know how to get great results with Lucy Starkiller.
- Lucy Starkiller Automatically creates the result on a new layer, leaving the original image untouched. You can then blend it with the original to control the intensity of the effect. (The default blend is 75%.)
- Six versions of the action/script are provided. Advanced users can enable the dialogs for even greater control.
- It’s much much cheaper!

What people are saying about Lucy Starkiller:
- Photographer Albert Goodman has posted his assement of Lucy Starkiller here. (Update: Page down, sorry!)
- Jordan McClements has posted an entire gallery of Lucy Starkiller images here. He also reviewed it here and talked about it again here.
Some notes on operation:
- Have you heard the saying, "garbage in, garbage out"? Well, it applies here too. For best results, start with the best quality, noise free, image you can.
- Lucy Starkiller actually works on small images too. The image on the right is the result of the the Lucy Starkiller action being applied after it was resized to 300 pixels wide.
- You should perform all of your other image adjustments prior to running Lucy Starkiller.

Lucy Starkiller is copyrighted. I spent a lot of time perfecting it and making it what it is. I am offering it for sale at a very reasonable price, and I am sure you will be pleased with what it can do. Please do not re-distribute it. Your cooperation is very much appreciated.
That is a seriously nice looking ride.
By the way, your site design is awesome. I love the opacity you are using in your comment section. Very cool!
Thanks Jason! Not my car, but I will take credit for the site design! Cheers.
You can’t copyright something that is already copyrighted. And, I am obviously referring to the name “Starkiller”. You better have a new hope that LucasArts doesn’t find out, or else you’ll be in big bantha poodoo.
I’m not claiming copyright to the name, I’m claiming copyright to the product. The use of the name would fall under “parody” and therefore, fair use.
Also, considering that “Lucy Starkiller” is in no way similar to ANY product that LucasArts (or Lucasfilm, for that matter) makes, I am not in any more danger than the makers of “LucisArts”.
I find your concern rather comical, but I’ll keep one eye open, just in case.
Talentnted artwork… amazing.. But why not buy the real one? How I wish that price is for the real one! ^^
Well, Rojenu, I think I outlined the main reasons why you would buy Lucy instead of “the real one” in right on this page, but by all means, if you have 600 dollars lying around, buy “the real one”. Personally I think it’s a tad overpriced.
this looks like a really nice action. I may have to look into this a little bit more. Could help greatly in what I do.
Thanks for letting us know about the plugin and a tutorial on how to use it i have never come across this before but from what i can see the results are great thanks for sharing :)
Edit: The author’s link has been removed from this comment as it displayed blatent “linkback farming”. The comment makes it obvious that the article was not actually read.
Nice! The LucisArt look is actually a copy of the Dave Hill look. Of course, Dave Hill’s postprocessing is probably a secret that a plugin won’t be able to replicate everytime.
But great of you to offer a cheaper alternative to LucisArt. I will consider getting it. :)
Well Leon, I personally think it’s not possible to say which is a copy of which. I actually think the Dave Hill look is distinctive from LucisArt in that it has a grittier look.
My action is capable of reproducing both looks, and many variations, but you are correct, the image you start with is extremely important. We aren’t doing magic here.
