I've been try for a while now to manipulate colour images on photoshop so they look as if they've been cross processed but with little success. Does anyone have a good technique for this?
 
HI Toby,

I don´t know if this is of much help to you, but if you shoot and scan slides you can set the FIlm-scanner Software to Colour Negative and after inverting you get a semi-cross processed look! works fine (now if I could find the link were I read that...)

Maybe you could imidate this by inverting the Original pic and then removing the (virtual) orange mask (like what the Film scanner does to Slides in Colour Neg mode) and inverting again? (you could scan a Colour neg straight and save the Orange mask Curves correction in PS)

From my modest experience with real (wet) crossprocesing the Pic´s from the Lab were allways very different (some say the Film brand makes a great difference)...I never looked too deeply into this cuz allways when I sent a important roll to the local lab for X-processing they screwed up and developed E-6 (I had no scanner back then) and every other time they did fine X-processed pics... :bang: ..so I stopped that alltogether!

I did some Scanner Xprocessing .. but just to try out...maybe later (when I´m home) I´ll find an exsample for You!

Cheers
