Other Tools: How to use Photoshop to get sketching effects

The process to change your photo into an amazing pencil sketch using Photoshop can prove to be slightly complex. So we highly recommend reading and following the steps below very carefully.

• Launch the application. Open your image. By default, it’ll reside on the “Background” layer.
• Duplicate this layer. For this, simply drag the layer and drop it on the “New Layer” icon located just below the “Layers Panel”.
• A new layer will be created. Make sure you have 2 layers at this point before proceeding. This is very important.
• Go to the Image menu -> Adjustments -> Desaturate. This will make your image black and white.
• Just like you duplicated the layer earlier, again duplicate this second layer to create a third layer. Ensure you’ve got 3 layers in total now.
• Go to the Image menu -> Adjustments -> Invert. Your image must now look like a film negative.
• In the “Layers Panel”, find the word “Normal”. Click on it. A drop-down list will open up. From there, click on “Color Dodge”. If your image just turned into pure white, this indicates that you’re following the steps correctly.
• Again, on the top right of the “Layers Panel” find 4 horizontal lines (otherwise known as menu icon). Click on it. A drop-down list will open up. Click on “Convert to Smart Object”.
• Go to the Filter menu -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur. A dialog box will open up. Adjust the “Radius” value to create a pencil sketch. A lower value means fine lines, and a higher value means deeper shadows and realistic sketch.
• Click on OK. Save the Image. Voila!
