Huckleberry Pie Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) OK, so I was playing around with a wallpaper of Sofia Vassileva for the lulz, and thought of mimicking the effect seen in the GTA IV concept art: Here's another attempt (slightly adjusted, though): It worked pretty well with the buildings in the background, but Sophie and the cabbie needs some work. Any ideas? Edited November 16, 2008 by Huckleberry Pie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harwood Butcher Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 This is just a guess, but did you use the "Poster edges" filter in Photoshop? That's what I usually use when I try to make a photo look like artwork. It works best with relatively large photos. Smaller photos usually don't work as well. If that's what you actually did, just try to adjust the filter a little and see what looks best. You might want to use the smudge tool afterwards to change anything you might not like. If you're going for a GTAIV artwork style, I'd say that's just about as close as you could get. If you want an older GTA artwork look, you just need to get rid of some detail and possibly polygon some stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then try out that filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
