Well, if you want to make your image look like it is from the Sin City art, then check this out.

Get a picture of something. I took a picture of the Los Santos skyline at night:

Then desaturate the Image:

you will see that all the colour has been drained from the image. That serves our purpose as the movie was black and white
Add a Gaussian blur, value of 2:

then add the Smudge Stick effect:

now the final step. Add a Gaussian Blur, value of 0,5

That's it!

If you want, you can add a tint by using the paintbrush with a very low opacity value. Look at mine (green tint):

In the future remember to save jpgs as higher quality so your images don't turn out low-res like this:

Other then that, not a bad little tutorial. I'll add it to the archive ASAP.
