To create this image, I traced a picture of an elderly man, smoking. I then scanned it into Photoshop and started editing it by increasing the contrast and decreasing the brightness. Next, I man the skin darker then what it was originally. I also shaded the hair in, from a light grey to black. This makes the man look younger, however the wrinkles on his face still age him. I then thickened the grey pencil lines giving the image more volume and made the tip of the cigarette red. Finally, I inserted a busy city street in the background to give the image seem more realistic.
This is the original image that I used to trace and scan into Photoshop. As you can tell, I highly edited it, as the original is completely different from the final product.
