Well, I tried jumping in with the cool kids, but I’m still a noob with a lot to learn. Can’t blame a guy for trying.

You’ll probably need to boost the contrast or adjust levels to the point that it posterizes and doesnt resemble a photograph with smooth color transitions.

You’re definitely braver than I am, and you faired better on your first one than I did too! Not sharing… :slight_smile:

A good trick I learned in art school is that to check your contrast, even on a computer screen and in color, squint and look at your image. You will be able to see if the shades are different enough or they all blend together.

I thought you did a good job of catching the imagery of the shot.

The subtleness would have been lost with any greater detail/sharpness.

Is that draftboard? I don’t know that you’ll get a decent image engrave out of it at all.
