    About This Class
    Imitate Line Engraving with a Non-Destructive Smart Effect in Adobe Photoshop.

    This effect creates a sophisticated graphic look of line-work and shading similar to the style used in banknotes, postal stamps and etchings, and can be used to create stunning prints, posters or give the same feel to a collection of images. This technique can also be used to prepare your images for screen printing, letterpress or intaglio printing.


    With this effect you can stylise images with a good tonal range, such as:

    • photographs (well-lit portraits work great);
    • found images,
    • paintings,
    • drawings,
    • digital art with shading.
    Everything in this class deals with non-destructive smart filters and adjustments, so once you have built the effect, you can easily apply it to any other images with just a little bit of tweaking!


    In this class you will learn:

    • how to build wavy line engraving effect in Adobe Photoshop;
    • how to quickly apply it to other images;
    • how to adjust and customise this effect;
    • how to build two alternative straight line effects.

    I cannot wait to see what you create in this class, join in and share your work!

    * This technique can be used in Adobe Photoshop CC versions. It should also work fine in previous versions, though it would require a work-around for smart adjustments.
