Hi Did a quick forum search but my network is very slow here( its my vacation adress) so i ask my question before i do finish a full search .On my iphone i havce this great app called camera360 it has a very nice cartoon effect . I would like to achieve this in PS.But how ? Havent found any solutions yet. Tried to email the developers but they wont tell me how the did it.

This is the effect

maybe some already has found the way or can point me the right direction.

When i have it i want to use it for a music video for a local singer/songwriter.

As with everything in Photoshop, there are almost always many different ways to achieve similar goals. Often, the deciding factor is not how well a given approach realizes the goal, but the unintended side effects, so beware of them.

I couldn't immediately find a photo sImilar to your example, so I went outside, snapped one, and put together a GIF animation that shows several of the native (ie, "built-in") techniques to convert a photo to a sketch, plus a few third-party plugins that provide alternate approaches (eg, from the Topaz and Power Retouche Pro suites of tools). I also show a method "color dodge, invert, blur" that was described in this old thread: https://www.photoshopgurus.com/foru...rn-your-image-into-beautifull-pencil-art.html.

HTH,

PS - After I put together the attached demo, I looked back at your example and realized that probably the most accurate reproduction of that particular effect (particularly, the curly lines) could probably be obtained using Topaz Clean, a 3rd party plugin to PS, possibly in combination with another technique.
