    Default Pencil Sketch Filter?

    I am wondering if there is a filter or technique available that will allow me to turn a portrait photograph into a fake pencil drawing, as a colleague of mine recently bought one of these drawings for £80.00, and I wanted to prove to him that its possible in photoshop!

    Anyone tried this?

    Also duplicate the image, apply filters and use layer transparency.

    You could also try different sketch filters/settings on each channel.

    There are several filters that do a very good job of this at the Adobe
    Expert Center or Adobe Studio action exchange:

    Easiest way is to desaturate your first image. duplicate the layer. Inverse the duplicated selection. Set the duplicate layer to colour dodge. this will give you a pure white layer. go to filtler blur gaussian blur and play with the slider. 30 secs when you get the hang of it.
