i am graphic artists and for me the filter would pay for itself after one use ( 15 minutes vs. 2minutes )

but i will follow up on improving your technique when i finsh this gig

i helps if you run the high pass filter over the image before running either your method or the power retouch edgeline filter.

i tried your method (which is brilliant and i joined creativecow.net just to tell you its better than any other non-filter method i came across)

i do agree with ronaldo that it doesn’t not hold up too well on larger images. (i’m trying to do screen for printing)

i remember there being an andromeda filter i used to own way back in PS4 and while looking for that i found this guy and his filters-

this filter is a must buy for me! just frakking incredible! (and its only $32) using just the preset i got this:

$32 dollars is worth all the time saved for me.

some other great sketch draw plugins to demo if you are interested in thsi kind of thing-
alien skin’s snapart. its a little more loose but it comes with all sorts of options like oilpaint and stuff and allows you to create effects along the lines paint essentials without having to launch a separate program. this is the result with pencil sketch filter:
