How to create cartoon effect in photoshop

[ddolddolee82]

Hello, I bet I saw cartoon effect tutorial online before.
I can't find it just when I want to try it.
I want to be able to create an image attached to this thread just by retouching.
If anyone knows a link to such tutorial or some tips, please tell me.
Thank you.

her face looks a little like the Artistic->Cutout Filter and PosterEdges in PhotshopCS2 with the nose and mouse masked through from the original image. Sorry I don't have links for cartooning though.. Kinda of funny, I know I have seen them before but can't remember myself..

Find a good looking photo of your celebrity. Isolate the head with the hair to another layer. Then resize the head so that it it "bobbleheadish". You can even use a different person's body that way, since the head will be bigger than life anyway. Then run a cutout filter over the whole thing.

Anyone knows better filters better than cutout and posterize filter?
(filters that give more controls over the image)
