I've attempted to do so with threshold and using curves but im a noob and the video's I've followed to try and get a similar effect don't really help. I just wanna know the rough process to get the same effect on different images I've provided the original image and two variations of it.

To recreate this effect in Photoshop, follow these steps:

  1. Open Your Image in Photoshop:

    • Open the original image you want to apply this effect to.

  2. Convert to Black and White:

    • Go to Image > Adjustments > Black & White to convert your image to black and white.

  3. Apply Threshold:

    • Go to Image > Adjustments > Threshold. Adjust the threshold level until you achieve a similar high-contrast look. This will convert your image into pure black and white areas without any gray tones.

  4. Use Curves for Adjustments:

    • Go to Image > Adjustments > Curves. You can create an "S" curve to enhance the contrast. Pull the curve down from the mid-tones to the shadows to darken the image and pull the curve up from the mid-tones to the highlights to brighten the image.

  5. Add Noise and Texture (Optional):

    • If your effect needs some texture or noise, you can add a noise layer. Go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise. Adjust the amount to your liking.
    • To add a grainy texture, create a new layer, fill it with 50% gray, go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise, set it to Overlay, and adjust the opacity.

  6. Blend Layers (if necessary):

    • You might need to blend multiple layers to get the exact effect. Try using different blend modes such as Multiply, Overlay, or Soft Light to see which one works best for your image.

  7. Final Touches:

    • Use the Brush Tool or Eraser Tool to manually adjust areas that need more detail or cleaning up.

These steps should help you achieve a similar effect to the one shown in the provided image. Experiment with the settings until you get the desired look.

A neutral Grey, like 128, 128, 128 for the RGB values.

Yeah, not judging. If it's correct, and it took you a fraction of the time, why not use it 🙂
