I had been asked to create some watercolour versions of my holiday photos so I created the following action file for Photoshop (CS2).
What does the action do?
- Creates 3 new dupliacte layers
- Layer 1 – Filter > Artistic > Cutout (with settings 4,4,2)
- Layer 1 Blend mode -> Luminosity
- Layer 2 – Filter > Artistic > Dry Brush (with settings 10,10,3)
- Layer 2 Blend mode -> Screen
- Layer 3 – Filter > Noise > Median (with setting 12)
- Layer 3 Blend mode -> Soft Light
Example:
