How to turn a photo into a comic cartoon on your cell phone | Publishers

Comica is a free application available for Android that allows you to transform photos into caricatures of the "comic" style, similar to cartoons and comic books. The app uses filters ready to make the change in the images, and offers different types of characterization. It is possible to use the editor with files from the gallery or in photographs captured on the spot, with the camera. The user can even add text balloons and stickers to make the art even more creative.

The app also allows you to create the artworks using a single photo or make montages with different files, using ready-made layouts provided by the app. It is possible to apply the filters independently, leaving each image with a different art. At the end of the editions, it is possible to share the creation on social networks such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram and Twitter. Check out, in the following tutorial, how to turn a photo into a cartoon using the Comica app.
