Stippled Ink Drawing turns your photo into a patient hand drawn ink illustration built from thousands of tiny dots. Every tone comes from dot density alone, packed tightly in the shadows and thinning out to bare paper in the light, with no hatching or line shading anywhere unless you choose to add it.
You choose the stipple style, from fine and controlled through bold coarse dots to a soft dusted spray. Then set the detail level, the tonal depth, and the colour treatment, including a shaded pencil crayon overlay that lays soft waxy colour over the finished dot work.
The composition and subject placement stay true to your original photo while the surface becomes true dot work. It works on portraits, pets, buildings, classic cars, and fantasy artwork, and the results suit framed prints, book plates, greeting cards, and gallery walls.
