Re: Chinese new year
Wow Palms; excellent idea and well done. Way to lazy to handsketch anything (without a Wacom that I am).

OKay Palms; what action was used? Like the result, and if this was done by one, I would like a copy too.

Lyle this is the workflow with the action in post 2 I know you have a version of ps now so you might be able to follow it but do it with a loose brush style ( but on this i only used the brush on one layer to get the look i wanted )

some images work a lot better than others though ( as usual)
