Add Missing Sketch Lines


When using our Photo to Sketch Converter free tool, you might not want to have a lot of strong details in your sketch. Then you move the slider towards the right to reduce Sketch Intensity. This might cause some of the main outlines to break, especially if your photo has weak contrast in that area, leaving you with a broken line.


In this screen recording, you can see how this happened to the sketch of an apple when Sketch Intensity was reduced to eliminate tiny details, causing the left side of the outline to become invisible. Simply download the sketch as is, upload it to our Clone Tool, copy a part of the line with a similar shape to what you need, rotate and/or flip it, and paste it to create a continuous line in its natural shape.
