  Achieve sketch/halftone effect

  Posted by Ciprian Dragan on September 29, 2014 at 10:13 pm

  Hello!
  First of all I’m a n00b on this forum. I hope I don’t break any rules.

  So I’m in a bit of trouble. One of my clients is asking me to achieve a similar effect to the one below on several images, sent by him.
  
  
  

  As far as I can figure out, these have been drawn from scratch. They’re not retouched photos.
  I’ve tried using a sketch/crosshatch effect, but the client isn’t happy. I’ve tried the halftone filter, but with poor results. I think it would take me ages to fin the right combination to achieve something similar.
  I don’t need the exact same effect, but something similar would be great.
  So have you guys ever run across something close to this?

  Thanks!

  If you’re working from a photograph:A combination of the Stamp Filter, Overlayed with the half-tone filter will get you close.

  If it needs to be hand drawn, I’d suggest using the pencil tool. It was little-to-no anti aliasing, so it will give you that same effect, albeit time consuming.
