Comicbook maker Photoshop Action
I liked the comicbook effect so much, I’ve turned it into a Photoshop Action. Just download it here and drop it into your \Presets\Photoshop Actions folder in your Photoshop directory. Start Photoshop and load Greywulf.atn from the Actions pallette – Comicbookify is right there. Load an image and hit Play.
Here’s a few more samples.
It works with real photos too! Give it a try, and post your results in the comments.
Enjoy.

A short while back I posted an image titled Stand Your Ground, and promised a tutorial showing how it was made. This is it. Note: This tutorial contains nudity. Underneath your clothes, so do you. Live with it, or look away now. Starting (as you do) at the end, here’s what the finished result looked

Only a handful this week, so I hope you like them! As ever, all rendered in DAZ Studio by yours truly with varying degrees of Photoshoppery applied. Clicking makes ‘em bigger. 1 person likes this post. Unlike

Warning: One of these images is NSFW. I’m not telling you which, but I’ll give you a clue: it’s the one containing breasts. Hey, it’s Sunday. If you’re working, you’ve only got yourself to blame :) On with the show. Assassin’s Leap Warlady II Pepper Potts and friend I think it’s about time Iron Man

I am, I’ll admit, a sucker for new figures and characters for DAZ Studio. When I saw Blank Boi – had to have it! It is exactly what it claims; basically a blank canvas, nothing more than a 3D version of a stick figure where everything is left to your ability to pose and position

I was doing a google search on Daz Studio and found your blog. So far I have read to here and I want to thank you for the time you have taken for people like myself that are new to 3d. That comicbookify is pretty cool looking stuff :)

This action hasn’t worked for me – all I get are b&w streaks as-is.
Any Ideas?

@Mike which version of Photoshop are you using? I wrote this for CS3 and it might not work in CS4.
You should get the same effect by following this walkthrough – the action just automates it.
It might just be that the top layer isn’t changing blending mode to Overlay, perhaps.
Hope that helps!

I’m using CS2 – that might be an issue.
I’ll check out the tutorial – thanks for the quick response!
