barkbark00 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 This is done by desaturating(Ctrl+Sft+G) the image and then adjusting the the contrast(Ctrl+Sft+C) to about 95-100. Also try playing with the brightness level to get your desired detail... I was gonna make him bald...

Crazy Man Dan Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Alrighty, here's one way to do it: Step 1: Select Colors -> Black & White Step 2: Trace the outline of the player with the Line / Curve tool with Black as your primary color. If desired, you can create a new layer and draw there. Step 3: Fill in the outside areas with Black using the Paintbrush tool. The anti-aliased edges are often hard to get with both the Magic Wand and the Paintbucket, so the Paintbrush is recommended here. Set the brush width large for the larger areas, then shrink it to get the details. Merge the two layers when complete if you chose to use a second layer. Step 4: Open Brightness / Contrast. Set the Contrast to 100 and adjust Brightness until you get your desired result. Hope that helps!
