Stipple / engraving / hedcut effect

Post by dognose »

Wondering if this is possible with IM.

Either stipple like WSJ

or engraving like this one

looks like that just uses a few textures?

I made that image with IM, with a fairly simple process that will be explained on one of my pages called "Lithographic effects" (not yet published).

Interesting, I'll look forward to that page..

The WSJ article, I forget can only be accessed from google.

https://www.google.com/search?q=wjs+stipple (should be first result)

it's more of a dot pattern.
