 New pixeling technique with Photoshop

First of all - I can't log in to post under my real name.

I experiment with pixeling for C+4, a lot!
Lately I've found on the web a method to do it with Photoshop. Results are amazing IMO.

just take a look:

or more examples here

plus/4 executable in the first blog post.

Oh and I moved to tumblr happy

Wow that's awesome! The colours in the picture are in a world of it's own, it's not 8bit nor 16bit but some where in the middle the likes we don't normally see. Lets see a C64 get out of that one. wink

Great stuff, nice article!
very very nice girls, and that photoshop technique is also brilliant. i had only one problem with photoshop : too many functions happy
i prefer something simlier, though such things are not possible with them.

@chronos

it's for every resolution and aspect ratio you want.
adjustment layers is a thing that started in PS few versions back and it really is main feature that makes this method possible.

 Re: New pixeling technique with Photoshop

Nice results! Any idea about from which version does Adobe PS know all the required features?
The technique is similar to mine I usually do in Paint Shop Pro 7 (reducing resolution, then apply a Posterize effect, etc.)

I've tried with CS4 (portable) and it seems like working.. btw, if you have size concerns (adobe bloatware) you can obtain portable versions as i did (CS6 portable is about 400 megs "installed") ..and i can provide it if you want to test out (strictly for testing purposes)..

Really nice ones! I like the Plus/4 versions' colors even better happy

( Only the mouse-men lips colors and the flowers seemed to be sacrificed, but strangely, the white looks too white to white, haha!
Maybe the breast reflection could be limited a little, that would be more realistic (I think in the original it was overdone too, looks little too plastic and not a real skin, with all respect to LAZUR, he is my fav from Amiga) )

 Re: New pixeling technique with Photoshop

i'm not so familiar with ps, so if you don't mind, please clarify which layer and color ramps needed from the demo, because if i try with the sample, everything gonna be blueish.. sorry again for my lameness grin

@chronos
I can only guess you are refering to example .psd file from original tutorial by dan Fessler.
If so then it's correct it only has two color ramps. blue is one of them and you will always get bluish results. you should build your own color gradient/color ramp. it's top most layer in layers stack.
