Photoshop Gurus... help!

[gopunk]

is there a plug in that can turn a photo into something like this? i mean, the style... no, i don't want to turn all pictures into that guy

thanks!

 

[gopunk]

bump

 

[Martin]

doubt it.

Reason is, I highly doubt that was a picture to begin with, so no plug in will give you that exact result.

 

[Odoacer]

Nope.

 

[gopunk]

aw that sucks. unlike wsj, i can't afford to get some guy to make portraits

 

[eleutheria]

Gopunk, if you learn how to do this, let me know. This is an interesting effect, I would like to be able to do it with photographs and make them look old-timey.

actually wombatwoman pm'ed me links to a filter called "cutline"... made by andromeda. it works pretty well, but costs 80 bucks

Eh, I suppose grayscale and the sharpen tool will work, but it isn't quite the same effect...

Maybe ease up on the sharpening...?

I was thinking to myself "where'd all the photoshopping people go?"

If I wasn't watching the laker game, doing homework, and working on my rc car at the same time, I might try to figure out how to really do it.

 

[gopunk]

kelvrick, was that with a filter?

 

[Kelvrick]

LordMaul told you how to do it.

I just greyscaled a picture, selected Sharpen *behind the blur tool in Photoshop 6.0* and got the biggest brush. Then, I just brushed until that came out.

If anyone here has photoshop 7.0, what do you think of it?

Sort of...depending on how he did it.

He changed the mode to grayscale, and then either swiped the Sharpen tool over it a few times, or went into Filters>Sharpen>Sharpen.

 

[gopunk]

hmm, doesn't work too well for faces

Also works if you sharpen, and THEN greyscale. Amazing...
