Is there an image filter like this?

[gugisisloco1337]

Hello, I want to make a t-shirt design, but I cannot find the filter for it, maybe it doesn't even exist and I can't even make out what the filters name would be. So I added an image of a design using this ''filter'', wanted to know if I can get it somewhere. I am new to photoshop but I have this great idea for a t-shirt and I need this filter. If it exists then it would be making a normal image look like that, with blank spots in between, don't know how to explain. If you know a filter like this please share it with me. Thanks in advance.

The specific image you see is probably designed by hand.
Although there's a series of effects you could apply to an image to obtain a similar result from a picture.
Since you are new to photoshop this is not what I would start with because Photoshop isn't a one click and ready piece of software.
Before starting using filters and actions you need first to learn the basics of Photoshop.
Just to demonstrate, here's something to reflect on:

Thank you for your response, I want to show you what I did with a picture of Ragnar from the show Vikings. So, I cut out Ragnar of the big picture and changed the threshold of the picture, the sides were very smooth but because of his fur cloak it couldn't be so, so I tried to do my best with the eraser tool and took out some specks here and there from the sides. I am pretty proud but it looks ugly the way it is. Another thing I tried to do was coloring his eyes blue, but nothing happened there, only colored the background a bit. Really want his eyes to be blue, it would look cool but can't do it. Maybe you can help?

In my view it does look good and kind of rough but natural.
BTW, never use a destructive method as the eraser tool.
Use a layer mask instead so you'll be able to correct.

I don't know how you have your layers set up, but this would be one way to do this.

Use whichever selection tool your comfortable with, I used the Pen Tool. Make a selection of where his Iris's should be.


Add a layer mask to the "threshold" layer.
Select the layer mask by clicking on it.
Then fill the selection with black.
This will mask out the selected areas.


Create a new layer below the "threshold" layer.
Use the Rectangular Marquis Tool to make a rectangle behind both eyes.


Fill the rectangle with Blue.


Create a new layer above the "threshold" layer.
Use the Elliptical Marquis Tool to create pupils.




Simple and quick.
