4- If you look closely you can see that the lines are a bit ugly but we will fix that by going to FILTER > STYLIZE > DIFFUSE
5- Now to increase the quality of the lines go to FILTER > SHARPEN > UNSHARP MASK and configure it the best way that fits your picture, test lots of combinations until you find your favourite.

7- Creat a new layer by clicking Ctrl+SHIFT+N and fill it with the color you wish.
