Learn how to change any photo into a cool cartoon sketch.

Step 1: Start with an image you would like to perform the perfect cartoon effect on IMO.


Step 2: Next duplicate the layer, and go to Filter -> Stylize -> Glowing Edges (Settings: 1,8,4).


Step 3: Put the blending mode on "Soft Light" and merge the layer down by going up to Layer -> Merge Down (CTRL + E). Than to go a nice color effect, go up to Image -> Adjustments -> Auto Color, and duplicate the layer once more. With the new duplicated layer go up to Filter -> Blur -> Motion Blur (Settings: Angle 0, 500px).


Step 4: Now go to Image -> Adjustments -> Levels and drag the right slider over a little to put the brightness up some. Now put the blending mode to "Vivid Light", feel free to experiment, or you don't even need to do this step, it's all up to you now to perfect it. Enjoy.
