Vexel art is a entirely pixel-based raster art that imitates the vector graphics technique. Vector art is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves and shapes or polygons (aka the pen tool), which are all based upon mathematical equations to represent images in computer graphics. (wikipedia ftw)O.O wow, i failed, all this time i figured PS could only deal with images..

Yeah, It's fairly easy to convert images to vector art using paths, especially logos.
I like the layered thresholds, but I'm like odj, posterize looks good and lets you move on to other filters quickly. But then, not all of us can be perfectionists like you, Rare.
Speaking of edges, profiles become very important when reducing color drastically like this, so Yasamuu in the one you posted in your thread, for instance, you lost the face on the character on the left (that ol' Toilet Face?) because the constrast between their head and the giant roll of toilet paper in the background of the source picture was too low. Sometimes it's possible to catch edges like that with very careful adjustment of the Threshold values, but sometimes it just can't be preserved.
Ebola decked her.Been practicing: Those have the screwy right side 'cause I copied 'em straight into PS4 from Firefox, bleh.This little technique struggles if the source image is lacking in strong detail. For instance, here are some that didn't come out well:- The original of this one had a nice bright, smooth Datamine golden glow to the sky and light parts of the pipes and Agent's face, but color contrast or very subtle value contrasts, so the areas just came out flat and boring:- Too many figures at different value levels here to be able to do them all justice, and I couldn't get detail on them and preserve atmospheric depth and detail on the distant building at the same time, so it's just sort of a muddle:- This night-time image just didn't have enough lighting/contrast on Ghost, and trying to squeeze it out with tight Threshold values just resulted in ugly blotchiness (didn't help that these were all jpeg compressed images I was working from, of course!):- The original of this was very light, low-contrast, with very subtle atmospheric depth, but when I tried to keep the light feeling, the depth was utterly lost:So start with a suitable source image and your job will be a whole lot easier!
