At the date of this review, the plugin is 50% off which makes the price much more in line with what we think people are willing to pay.

You can buy a lot of premade Photoshop addons on Creative Market or GraphicRiver for that price but if custom filters is what you need, there’s no better software than Filter Forge. The only thing that is stopping us from highly recommending it is its price tag – at $250 for the standard and $400 for the professional version, it’s a hefty sum for many artists. Also, some filters can take over 10 minutes to render a high-res photo but it depends on the complexity of the filter and your computers speed. This was resolved this by using the Photoshop plugin instead of the standalone program. We used the professional version which lets us save images larger than 3000x3000 pixels but there were many times when Filter Forge crashed trying output anything larger than 3000 pixels – only the simplest filters worked. The amount of filters is great and the interface is intuitive, but we ran into some issues outputting high-res images. There are obviously some great artworks and effects that you can create and you should visit their gallery to see some examples.

Some of the effects are geared towards 3D artists who need seamless textures while the others are geared for photographers and designers who want to apply specific photo effects that can’t be done in Photoshop. Although there are 9000+ filters, only 1/10 are what I would consider worth trying but that still leaves you with an insane amount of filters.

Filter Forge is an incredibly powerful software and it can be incredibly useful especially if you’re willing to learn how to create your own filters.
