Hi steemians. I will explain step by step how to transform photos into georgous pencil drawings. 
I tried to make it understandable for everyone, I hope you like it.
(Shortcuts are for PC users, not MAC)

Let's start. 
* Open a photo in Photoshop![TOKIO.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPi6XjrVJUQBG7e9PD6rZDsDH4U4ei5LzwnfGybm238VB/TOKIO.jpeg)

* Make a copy of it (CTRL+J)![1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmW4CtNAUnNUTtepB4zd1B2x3bvxHpHBCxFKdURPxGggL2/1.jpg)

* Click on the thumbnail of Layer 1 to make it active![4.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWrvTmqom2LyLVuB14BSPuvUeRz5cRe2cdyyLvWLGNvKc/4.jpg)
And change the blend mode to Color Dodge![5.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZPW6hQJE7X8fy7FvTzjdvymvX7zgPe3schKUy4HEWuXX/5.jpg)

* Invert it by pressing CTRL+i, the image should look white. Go to Gaussian Blur ![6.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPqLcXCsroRhFiwTvqPZfTc9FuPkECPHHLURqawU9qFG3/6.jpg)

* Slide the radius where that looks good to you![7.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcFdKZU3pnGCH6jtziWFotEgFzRxA6zUH9XbfW691Tdec/7.jpg)

* To make the overall image look more denser, click on the Adjustment Layer button again, choose Levels![8.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQpjMsxbXVeNFyKdLFBRkgffZBLcQS6JwnZvCCT1sgHNE/8.jpg)
Slide the input Darks to the right, focus on the face of the image or wherever is important

* If other areas are  too dark, go to Brush Tool, adjust the brush size as you want, make the Hardness to %0, and Opacity %40![9.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfBg9WgdogpBmRZ1ku84TydHpdJP4vhkbfAm2cr9UwBUp/9.jpg)
Make sure the foreground color is black![10.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNbLAz4kmJLTNTwD7wQ5CbxxSeQcDop6FB4icZko1iovL/10.jpg)
Brush over areas you want to make less dense.
