Adding points, cutting lines.

To finish the iron man chest image trace for the disk I need to cut some of the circles I made nd rejoin the left lines and curve their edges.

To add a new anchor point to my circles I use the Add Anchor Point Tool found under the pen tool

Using this I hover over the area of the line I want to add the anchor and left click.


I then did the same to the bottom, now I can select the 2 points on one of the circles and press the scissor icon at the top.

Which results in the the shape being cut at the anchor points making 2 new shapes, and blew shows the line I want to keep, the rest can be deleted. This was then repeated for the outer circle.

Ti get the curved edge I select the end anchors of each of the lines

then press the icon ta the top which joins the 2 end points.

This creates a new line which joins the 2 shapes together from the points selected, this was repeated for the bottom points.

With this I can now create the curved the line using the handles.
