Oil Painting
With this technique you can turn any image into an oilpainting.Things Needed:
Find Edges
Levels
Desaturation
- First I found this picture at Here (Thanks to the author for the pic!) Now, load it up onto Photoshop. The absolute first thing you want to do is click on the layer on the layers box and press Ctrl+J two times. This will give you 2 more duplicated layers.

3.. After that stay on the top layer and change the levels, that can be done by clicking Image->Adjustments->Levels. Make the levels something like this
4. Finally Select the top layer and go to the "Blending Box" or also know as the little box on the layers box that says "normal" Click on the down arrow on the blending box and select "Soft Light" and there you have it. Your very own oil painting. This can be used on most images. Hope you liked it!

nice rip of an already done tutorial
so why do you duplicate 2 times wen you're only editing one of it?
this is not the first anonymous....i agree it was done already but this one worked the best out of the three others i tried...and why do u duplicate it 2 timess??

I duplicated it two times because you need to set one on SoftLight, and that will show up over the original layer, the Blended layer on soft light without the original under it will be transparent looking. So you need the bottom layer, I did this because it brings out the details and makes it richer looking. And By the way thank you for saying this helped better then the others :) And no i did not rip this off of anyone else i created this without any help or guidance, that is how i make all of my tutorials.
WTF DUDE HOW DO YOU MAKE A NEW DOCUMENT?!?!
MY PAINT DOESN'T LET ME CHOOSE SIZES!
PLZ TELL ME WHAT U R DOIN MAN KTHXBYE
This is my favorite thing to do! Thanks alot for your easy instructions they helped alot.
hahaha.. hey anonymous..everymaster have thier own idea and style...thats what he want so.....respect his works...ok..mwauh!
so anonimous you see what he want...coz he want the details of his image.....got it.. :)
As others have said before me, why duplicate twice when you can duplicate it once and be done with it? You see, if you duplicate it twice, you get 2 new layers and thus altogether 3 layers, when you only need 2 - the edited one set on Soft Light and the original one. That's it. You should fix that mistake. ;)
Other than that, interesting...
i was confused about some parts because you weren't specific about which layers to select at what time to do the filters/layers/etc. but i messed around until i got it right. very pretty.
Interesting tutorial, I agree with what everyone had to say about the second duplicated alyer, but what I did notice to add ot your tutorial is that if you play around wit hthe blending of the second layer which is not used you can get some pretty nice effects.
Nice one.
