Convert photo to sketch using InstantPhotoSketch or InstantPhotoSketch Pro

CPSSoftware produces two photo sketching tools – InstantPhotosketch(or the Light version) and InstantPhotoSketch Pro(or the Pro version). Both of them convert any digital photo into some sorts of sketch or drawings. We also have an experimantal InstantPhotoSketch online version.

The light version can only create one type of sketch, but does it well. It is the type of the sketch that can be called Pen sketch, when the object contour is outlined with dark color on white paper. You can see couple before and after examples in the gallery below.

The program is extremely simple to use – just load a photo and press “process” button. There are also two sliders to control edge darkness and details level.

The effect works well with people pictures, buildings or cityscapes and many other types of photos.
