line drawing from photoshop paths???

[lancsDavid]

ok, problem is...

i want to create technical drawings, in photoshop, with the pen tool - and then for the resultant image to end up looking like it's been hand drawn with a pencil

so a little variation in shade, along the paths, perhaps with little variations of pressure and even a little wobbliness, if u know what i mean

is this possible, does anyone know?


(my early efforts with the brush tool has merely confirmed that my understanding of the brush tool is more limited than i thought)

That is going to be pretty difficult to replicate well without spending the time to customize each stroke. The only thing I can think of is playing with some brush settings here:

Using the angle jitter and size jitter you could try to replicate some random stroke variation. You can also play with the opacity jitter in that menu as well, which could possibly recreate pressure variance.

That is just speculation, but hopefully it'll help some...
