Convert to mono colour (black and white) before tracing
Actually you can achieve the effect pretty easy in XX:
- Import the photo
- Convert it it to grayscale (rightclick on black color in the palette and chose dark contone). Improve the contrast if needed.
- Make a blend between two 1 or 2 px lines so it covers the photo
- Select the photo and make a truecolor bitmap copy
- Blur the copy (amount between -15 and -20, my example blur: -17)
- Adjust levels (my example, input levels set to: 63, 1.59, 113)
- You are done
