Referring back to yesterday’s post, it is another of my short-term ambitions to learn how to create cartoon images based on some of our photographs. This would seem on the face of it to be easier to achieve. Surely a simple cartoon like the one on the left is easier to draw than detailed, life-like sketch? Perhaps it is when you have the skill to draw it freehand. But I can’t draw to save my life, so I would have to do it by manipulating the photographs. I have followed up a couple of “how to” links on the Photoshop help site, but I can’t honestly say I have been impressed with the results shown as examples. It would be great to produce an adult comic strip featuring yours truly and Emma - and great fun taking the photographs to convert to the cartoon format. If I ever master the technique, you’ll be the first (and probably the only ones) to know.
