How to design Photo to Line drawing

Hi There,

lots of u would have thought how a line drawing is being made from a real picture..

here I'll help you to do so in just a few steps..

i just took this picture of emma watson..

first take a picture.. a high clarity picture.. open it in photo-shop..
then do the following steps
1) duplicate the layer two times (original layer for backup).. this is done because some mistakes may happen during editing.. so that you can start over..

2) change the mode of the top most duplicate layer to color dodge (this is right above the lock tab near the layers)

3) press CTRL+I to invert the colors..

4) now goto filters>blur>Gaussian blur.. select a appropriate radius so that the picture looks like a colored line sketch..

5) now click the new hue/saturation fill layer from the bottom bar of the layer window..

6) now desaturate the picture(move the saturation slider to lowest)..

7) now the picture looks like a line drawing..

and my picture looks like this..
