Comment on Cecilia of Arengarde by yinsey

I don't know about OC but in Photoshop there is a tool called Pen.

You can draw paths with it. It is really easy to use. Choose the pen tool and click the starting point of the line and then click the ending point of the line that you want to draw.

Then it draws you a path witch you can manipulate by adding draggin points in it.

Just put the the pen tool over the place where you want to add the drag point and click it. Now you can manipulate the path by pressing down Ctrl and clickin the drag point. (hold down the ctrl and mouse button).

You can delete paths from the path page in the layer/channels/paths window

If you want to close an active path press Esc. After you have drawn the paths you can paint them by using the stroke path- function. The the pen tool and right click the mouse -> choose stroke path.

In the stroke path window there is box which says simulate pressure. Tick the box if you want to simulate pen pressure. If you just want to draw normal lines don't tick the box.

The best way to learn to use it is just to practise with it. I hope this helps atleast a bit.

(check out my drawings and tell me if that is what you think about my outlines in my drawings.)
