Hi!

Been trying to recreate the comic-like effect used in Max Payne cut-scenes, but with no luck... Any of you guys have any idea on how to make something like this out of a real picture... Cause the way I see it, they've taken real photographs and fixed them... or are these real drawings?

Hi cz-!

Mmmmm... these look like painted images to me. ;)

I might experiment a bit with a photo and see if I can come up with a close approximation...

I encourage others to try likewise! :D
 
I remembered seeing a tutorial on how to create a similar effect from a photograph, unfortunately the site appears to have closed. I'm looking around to see if I saved it as an 'offline web page' because I used to be on dialup and the cost of reading tuts live was pretty high :\
 
[confused] I did some looking around myself, but couldn't find any technique that rendered a similar result.

Again, I tend to think that this is, indeed, an artists rendition... :\
 
Hanarky! :righton:

It's pretty close to the effect that cz- posted, using a standard photo! :)

I'm convinced that with a few more tweaks (play and experiment), it'll do the job quite nicely! ;)
 
getting closer

Here you go.. This is what I have so far.. I used the same picture as in the tutorial posted earlier, since I thought it had the right atmosphere... Didn't really like the result the tutorial gave me :)
Still striving for the perfect look..

Anyway. Here goes nothing.
 
Nice work cz-! :righton:

It's a good starting point and I'm sure that you'll find ways to tweak it to your liking! ;)
