image to painting or drawing

[fullmoon2]

Do anyone know a way to make a ordinary photo look like it´s drawed in illustrator (3D). I have notised that it´s very popular these days in webdesign to make every object in illustrator, but I don´t have the time.
Searched google for a couple of days now.. I give up!

Please, help! I´m happy for every tip!

have you checked out the photoshop filters?

Yes, but I think they are really bad.

I know I maybe got a too big wish, but to make it something like this:

or

I maybe have to be a magician to turn a photo like this.. but maybe not..

Now that I see what you are looking for I have to say that I really don't know of any filter or application that will transform a storefront pic to the drawing you see at the delistore link.

They may have taken inspiration from a picture but I would love to see an application that would transform to that results.

If you find one please report back !

Much Luck

That is an illustration, not a software-based conversion from a photo.

You can illustrate this in either Photoshop or Illustrator. Both could produce this art with a patient artist at the controls.

I guess that too.. but I wished there would be an easier way.

But thanks for the tip!

The easier way would be to hire an artist.
