Smooth Lines on Imported Graphic

[djs45uk]

Hi all

I've imported the following picture into Photoshop:

As you can see it was hand drawn by someone and they're asked me to 'colour it in'.

But before I start, I was wondering if there is some nifty tool in Photoshop that would smooth and/or straighted the lines (to make it look less hand drawn).

Many thanks

Daniel

Don't think so. However, it is a relatively simple image, so you might be able to manually trace over it, which would also make it easier to colour in later. I think Adobe Illustrator would handle this job a bit easier though, if you have it.

djs - definitely illustrator or some other vector-type software to redraw the lines. From there you could bring it back into photoshop to color in or color it in your vector program. It just depends on what software you're more comfortable working with.

Great thanks to both of you!

I was worried that I wouldn't be able to redraw those curved lines but you've made me feel more confident about it now so I'm going to give it a go. All part of the learning curve!

Thanks again

Daniel
