Hi, i am desperatly trying to color a drawing i made from a plant. I used the vector brush on a layer on a photgraph. Now that i want to color the skizze and don´t want to draw over my skizze lines, i am trying to find a way to add a layer on top so that the color and shading will stay inside the lines. I tried to add another layer and then use the integration button but it will only then color the black lines not the inside. I couldnt find any help online, please is someone able to assist? Thank you so much!

The paint bucket will fill the space between lines, but you have to be very careful that your lines gave no "gaps," or the paint will flow outside through the gaps. Other than that, you can manually paint with a brush (usually it's cleaner to paint on a layer below your line drawing so that you can see the lines clearly above your painting.

Ok thanks, so there are some gaps as i´ve drawn it by hand. so there is no way to contain the color in within the lines? all lines have to be connected otherwise i need to fill in the color manually trying not to color outside the lines?
