March, 2008 - AKVIS LLC announces the release of AKVIS Sketch v.6.5 for Windows and Macintosh. Now the software converts photos to realistic pencil and watercolor drawing in an entertaining way.

The new version is available as a stand-alone application, as well as a plugin to a photo editor. Upgrade for registered users is free.
AKVIS Sketch is an award-winning program for conversion of photos into pencil sketches and watercolor drawings. Make any photo look like a B&W or color drawing, imitate the technique of graphite or color pencil, charcoal or watercolor painting.
Version 6.5 presents a new feature - Real-Time Drawing. The new feature allows observing the conversion of a photo into a drawing/watercolor in real time and even interrupting the process when the required result is achieved. Now the program does not only deliver a high-quality result but is also fun to use.
Besides, the Color Strokes mode has been streamlined to get a better result.
Many photo editing enthusiasts have already appreciated the Sketch’ s features. Take a look at a gallery of examples (many created by users) at http://akvis.com/en/sketch/examples-pencil-drawing.php
Sketch can be used on many occasions. Surprise your friends and relatives by presenting them their pencil portraits. Make a watercolor drawing out of a photo from your last nature shooting to decorate your room. Convert your own photo into a color sketch to print on a T-shirt. Create a comic out of your party videos.
The program can be helpful to designers who need to quickly bring images to one style for a web-site or an advertisement booklet.
AKVIS Sketch has a simple interface with a few sliders. At first you can process the image with the default settings and then touch up the photo adding color, or trying different techniques - from pencil to charcoal or watercolor. You can make the hatching denser or finer and change the pitch angle of strokes. After that, you can apply a texture to imitate a painting on a canvas.
Using batch processing in Photoshop or Paint Shop pro (only for the plug-in version) you can even convert a film into a cartoon. Like here: http://akvis.com/en/sketch-tutorial/cartoon-film.php
