    Popular image.

    Interestingly when I did a search for steel line engraving it showed the Xara Xone Guest Tutorial image at the top of the images.

    if you look carefully at Lincoln on a US dollar you see that what is important for a 'hand-made' effect is that the etch lines follow the contours of the face, ie the bone structure

    you cannot get that automatically with a computer because that information is not in 2D drawing or photograph, all you have is light and shade

    the example Mike posted is a fair example of following the light and shade, but if you want a true 'hand-made' effect it needs to follow the bone structure and you need to tell the computer where that is and that means work

    if anyone knows a shortcut I'm all ears...

    Does that mean you should change your name to Dumbo? Like you I don't think that can be done at the push of a button and it does take work.
    What does the OP mean by stylize a drawing anyway?
    Wouldn't the best way be to draw it himself? At least that way it would be unique and in his own style. Oh sure that's easy for me to say.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    the voice over my shoulder with the coffee says 'jackass' is more appropriate [does that mean I am more democrat than republican?]

    I think the OP thinks photoshop can do the work for you, but there is a lot more than just 'morphing' to this if you want it to look like the real thing

    The first part is not for me to say or judge.
    The second part I agree.
