These Photoshop Actions Convert Photos into Pixel Art

Turn any photo or graphic into pixel art like those seen in retro console games. Unlike Photoshop’s Mosaic filter, these actions organize pixels with patterns that resemble pixel art (see an example in the product images). The free download (courtesy of SparkleStock) gives you 6 Photoshop actions for color and B&W results. You can also upgrade to the Pro version giving you 21 actions including two that emulates the original Nintendo NES and the Nintendo Game Boy colors. Please note that you will need Photoshop CC to use these actions.
