Hey all, im trying to convert a picture into a drawing like you have prolly seen some people do here, I am just stuck on converting the glass to a "cartoonish" feel. Anyone know the best way to convert the glass (special color or swatch to use)? I tried all types of blues and whites, I can't get the right feel for it though.

Just looking for a little help if you can offer it....

 

glass like a windshield?

look around for automotive illustrations to get an idea, or post your original and your progress here, perhaps someone can lend a hand...

 

I use transparent gradients to give glass the right look.

 

Thanks man, I actually found a RGB Glass to lay over it and just tweaked the transparancy with a blue tinted white underneith and it came out pretty good.

 

So let's see it!

 

Make with the pics already











...please

 

Im not done yet... lol, this is my first time attempting the "entire" picture. It is also a little time consuming tracing the entire thing on a laptop. lol

 

Subscribing to see what you're up to

 

Yea, touchpads SUCK for Photoshop/Illustrator. I end up carrying around a full sized USB mouse for that stuff.

 

I used to carry a mouse when I had a laptop, as well... At least you're not carrying around a tablet... (thinking of my 12x12 wacom...)
