I’m glad this website can save you money, Des. If you want T-shirts printing I know plenty of companies who can do that.

Blimey! Snappy Snaps are charging a fortune for this! I can do it on my laptop! I just need to find someone who screenprints canvas for a reasonable price now!

You’re right Matt, turning the image into a bitmap from a greyscale and then controlling the halftone screen gives you better Lichtenstein dots.
I’m finding I get a lot of traffic from Google Images for these images! Rob

Very nice tutorial. I use a very similar technique on my own website (except for a few secret differences )
There’s a really good Lichtenstein tutorial over at http://www.melissaclifton.com/tutorial-popart.html.
Well done Rob…

@mandy, that’s what it’s meant to do! After you’ve done that then go Filter > Pixelate > Color Halftone, choose the smallest dot, 4 pixels wide. The layer is set to Multiply at 10% Opacity – just enough to see it.
It’s just a method to overlay small dots over a picture.

By: mandy

mandy — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 21:15:46 +0000

it doesnt work!!!
i add a new layer and when i get to that cloud bit it just covers my pic with some black and white cloud!!

That’s a thought! I wonder if there is a plugin for this, there probably is somewhere… If you need any help get back to me. Remember to keep copying your Photoshop layers (Cmd/Ctl-J) – you never know when you’ll need to refer back to them. Thanks for popping by.

Henri van den Hoof — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 08:05:26 +0000

Nice effect and have tried this myself before, but not with this quality of results. Would be great to have a Photoshop plugin for this, but for now I’m going to try it with the explanation you gave. Thanks
