Hey was just fiddlin around and found this... i totally forgot about this specific filter guys, and i think it gives a slightly better effect than the Mosaic one does.  :righton:


FILTER>Stylize>Extrude...


Dupe your main photo, and run the filter on that. Then run through the various Blend Modes to find the one that suites your eye. I like Screen/Overlay/Soflight/Hardlight. Darken though has an interesting effect too.


Try these settings for the Extrude filter, til you see what it can do:


TYPE: block

SIZE: 30

DEPTH: 10/random

and both checkboxes at the bottom selected.


Depth will create some VERY cool effects if cranked up. But for a subtle effect, leave it low.


Ok and now, after running that filter on the duped layer, run Unsharp Mask on it also. Set the amount to 500 radius to 0.5 & threshold to 0. This will burn out the edges of the block effect and exaggerate it. Reduce Opacity for a more subtle effect.
