You could try playing with the middle (gamma) slider to get better results, or use the curves tool rather than the levels tool - it gives you a bit more control. > Please excuse the appended question, but is there a way I could use > the original as a kind of template to produce a hard line clean > version in black? I could then blur it a bit for a nice result. You could create a new layer on top of your original, and set the layer mode in "overlay" - that way you will see your original drawing underneath, which you can draw on afterwards.
