Help needed

Hello everyone I made the diagram of Eurasia Tower in Moscow, but I have some probs with rescaling:
I made this diagram in high dimentions, but after rescaling it turned out in piece of sh*t

Before


After


PS I use Adobe Photoshop
PPS Rescaled diagram is 34% of original drawing. Don't even ask me, why I was stupid lol
Thanks for attention

Looks Good to me, and I also usually get disappointed when I'm rescaling (I also use Photoshop).

Hi, that's a nice diagram.

When posting "full-size" drawings, you may want to watermark them so people on the internet don't steal them.

In terms of resizing, you may want to run a sharpen filter over the diagram, play with the different levels of sharpening until you get something you like. I always need to do this.

When doing full sized drawings, it helps a bit to make sure you draw at a scale like 1:2, 1:4. So when you resize down, the computer / software can round off pixels evenly.

Thank you for your replies I didn't expect anyone will do it lol
Oh, ok, next time I'll do so, thanks for advice
I really don't know why, but I started drawing it in wrong scale, but it was too late, when I understood it

Try using the sharpen feature, don't overdo it though. It can make it look a little bit better.

Sometimes resizing a larger drawing can be tricky. Here are a few tricks to make it go better

- Blur the full size drawing first (in Photoshop I used Filter > Blur > Blur More ) - this will eliminate or at least reduce the banding effect seen on your resized drawing (some floors are darker than others)

- Then resize (in Photoshop I used the Bicubic Sharper option)

- Then a very minor sharpen (in Photoshop I used Filter > Sharper > Smart Sharpen and used the default values, amount 50%, radius 1 px)



My version is on the right. The initial blur gives the greatest improvement of all the steps.
