Now go to Filter » Sketch » Graphic Pen Now just adjust your stroke length and light/dark balance. Generally, we put the stroke to the higher end, around 13 or 14. and the Light Dark Balance around 70 - 80. You just adjust yours according to your image, different settings works better on different image. |

- Now go to SELECT » All - Then Edit » Copy - Then File » New (just use the default settings because the size are already set from the clipboard) - Then go to Edit » Paste Essentially what we are doing here is copy the sketched channel from the other image to a new one so we keep the sketched image. No apply some gaussian blur, Filter » Blur » Gaussian Blur Set the radius to about 0.3 or 0.4 |
