How to Make a Pencil Drawing From a Photo In Photoshop

Hello guys! Come back with me @littlemozart. Today I wanna show you how to make a pencil drawing from a photo in Photoshop. As you know before that I really liked Tomas Rosicky a.k.a "The Little Mozart", a football player who was once played with Arsenal, my favorite football club. So here I will make his photo to be an amazing pencil drawing. Let's see how faster and easier way to do it!

First open the blank paper image for the background.

Open the image that will be made into a sketch, then drag it to the background.

Right click on "Layer 1" and choose "duplicate layer", or you can press Ctrl+J on your keyboard. Then go to Images -> Adjustments -> Hue/Saturation or you can press Ctrl+U and changes Saturation at "Layer 1 Copy" to be -100.

Do duplicate layer at "Layer 1 Copy", and it would be "Layer 1 Copy 2". Changes Blend Mode at "Layer 1 Copy 2" to Color Dodge, then Invert it by pressing Ctrl+I. At this step, your image should look white.

Go to Filter -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur. Then slide the Radius to an amount that the image looks good to you.

Selection all three layers and then merge to be one layer.

Changes the Blend Mode at this layer to "Multiply"

You can clean up on the edges of the image by using Eraser Tool. Then go to "Levels by pressing Ctrl+L, slide the input dark to the right to make your image look and feel more like a pencil drawing than a photograph.

Done! Now I have a pencil drawing of Thomas Rosicky. You can do these simple techniques to transform any photo into a beautiful pencil drawing.
