Hey Helium!

Nice effect there! Please share on your technique. I couldn't duplicate his results in GIMP because it doesn't seem to have that "bitmap as halftone" function....but I did come up with my own technique I have been meaning to write up as a tutorial that involves the newsprint filter and displacement maps...
