Step Six: Hold down the Option
(PC: Alt) key and go to Layer>
Merge Visible to create a merged
layer at the top of the layer stack.
Rename it “Merge.” Then, go to
Filter>Filter Gallery and select the
Poster Edges filter from the Artistic
folder. Set the Edge Thickness to 1,
Edge Intensity to 0, and Posteriza-
tion to 6. This adds a slight drawn
edge around the edges of the
model. Click OK.
Step Five: Press Command-J (PC:
Ctrl-J) to duplicate the Background
layer. Go to Filter>Other>High Pass,
set the Radius to 5 pixels, and click
OK. Then set the layer’s blending
mode to Overlay to render the gray
areas invisible and create a sharp-
ening effect with the High Pass
lines. Double-click the layer’s name
in the Layers panel, and rename it
“High Pass.”
