On the duplicate: remove the colors by using Colors / Hue-Saturation. Set the saturation to -100: 3 Duplicate this color-less layer again. Now you have 3 layers. 4 Now choose Filters / Blur / Selective Gaussian Blur, value: 4. Then use Colors / Invert. Then change the opacity of the layer to 50% to get a grey layer that shows the photo’s edges very weak. 5 Merge the layer with the layer down: right-click the layer in the Layers window and choose “Merge down”. 6 Duplicate the now merged layer and change the new layer’s mode to “Dodge”.Now the pencil drawing is finished! 7 If you want to point out the grey lines some more, you can do so as follows:Merge the two grey layers so that you can find the line drawing on a single layer.
