Illustration or Comic book Effect in Photoshop

Posted on 03/01/2015 by Eric Renno

In this video I demonstrate a technique of using Smart Filters to make a highly versatile illustration or comic book effect in Photoshop. In this example I’m going for the children’s story look, but with a few tweeks and edits it could look more like a comic strip or sketch.

The image used here is from our friends at Fotolia and is #74069436 – superhero child by eelnosiva. I’d love to see how you use this technique so feel free to drop me a note on Twitter or Facebook with a link!
