Photoshop is really a very powerful program to
do almost whatever you want with your images, but you have to use
many of its tools together to get the effect that you want. Learn
how to change a picture to a sketch in easy steps.
- Choose a picture that will look good when
turned into a sketch, either a landscape or a portrait.
- Duplicate the background layer by selecting
it in the layers window and pressing (Ctrl+J) so you can revert to
the original if you did not like the result.
- Select the new layer and click Filter >
Sharpen.
- Press (Ctrl+Shift+U) to turn the layer into
black and white.
- Click Filter > Other > High Pass, the value
you enter for radius depends on your image. Try to choose a value
while watching your image so you do not have neither too much gray
nor too much white in the picture, notice that the value you
choose here has much effect on your final result.
- Click Filter > Sketch > Graphic Pen. Play
with the "Stroke Length" and "Light/Dark Balance" until you get
good results. I have chosen 15 for "Stroke Length ", 40 for
"Light/Dark Balance" and "Right Diagonal" for "Stroke Direction".
This is all you have to do to turn your picture
into a sketch.
