How to use Photo to Sketch and Cartoon Filters
Choose a photo, pick an effect and adjust its sliders, then download the full-size JPEG.
How it works
Pencil sketch blends the grey image with its blurred negative (colour dodge); cartoon reduces smoothed colours to a few levels and darkens Sobel edges.
Example
A portrait with line softness 8 becomes a clean pencil drawing; duotone navy and yellow gives a poster look.
