Great stuff but since I'm a rookie I would really appreciate a more detailed tutorial with screen shots. I really got stuck at step 2 (duplicating layers). Should I make the dots on the actual picture? How do I cover the entire surface? I really want to grasp this method but it seems very difficult if new to Photoshop. Thanks a lot! Hello!

I really want to grasp this method but it seems very difficult if new to Photoshop.

Thanks a lot!

I still cling to a copy of Pshop 5.5 (yes, run under Classic emulation!) because there are several old filters you just can't find anymore, one of which is Flaming Pear's "India Ink"...I dont THINK they updated it, would be happy if they did. It doesn't replicate the results for this exact technique, but it often does a fine job of phaking hand inked look and feel from nicely contrasted photos. You can still get it, but I think its from like 1992 so good luck running it unless you are really retro, or like me, have a legacy version of pshop or similar. http://photoshop.pluginsworld.com/plugins/adobe/202/flaming-pear/india-ink.html Just thought I would add this, though the thread may be dead (with the exception of stumblers)… I still cling to a copy of Pshop 5.5 (yes, run under Classic emulation!) because there are several old filters you just can’t find anymore, one of which is Flaming Pear’s “India Ink”…I dont THINK they updated it, would be happy if they did.

Once you have saved the displacement map use the displace filter and it will follow the contours of the displacement map and look more like the wood etched / head cut / stipple effect.

I'm using Photoshop 6.0 for Windows and There seems to be no option that specifically says "Create Clipping Mask". All I have is "Layer> Add Clipping Path > Reveal All or Hide All" and that seems to do nothing. Not sure quite what I'm doing wrong here. Great looking result though on your images!
