Mmillecamps Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hi everyone, just trying some stuff out.I scanned a drawing, adjusted the levels a bit and selected the black lines with the flood select tool.I'm now coloring the shapes with the flood fill tool.Of course it doesn't fill very nicely around the black lines.How can you touch this up 'easily'?Also is there a way to make the drawing lines more smoother?Image was scanned as TIFF in 600 dpi. Then imported. I zoomed in a lot on the screenshot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barninga Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 you could try adding a gaussian blur live filter and set the radius so that it smooths the lines as needed. if there are areas where you don't want the blur effect, you can click on the blur layer thumbnail and then paint black (with the paintbrush tool) where you don't need the image to be blurred. then if you select "merge visible" from the layer menu, you get a new layer where a new image with smoother lines; at this point the fill tool should work better. an alternative approach could be to select the coloured areas instead of the black lines, and then invert the selection and paint it black.
