Description
The image is rather large, just so you know.
This tutorial was written because of =Serephinex--I'd mentioned with my picture Lady of the Lake that I'd thought of doing tutorials, and she'd asked for them. She's probably got her own way of cutting, but I find this one works really well for me!
I can usually get a smaller image cut out in about ten minutes with this method, longer if I decide to erase the entire background versus using the paint bucket (sometimes I do that). This method will work with mouse or tablet, but it's easier with a tablet.
Written using Photoshop CS2 (Mac), but will probably hold true for any version of Photoshop that uses layer masks.
Any questions, comments, anything, lemme know! I know I'm wordy, hopefully it's easy to understand. (There's some spazzy capitalization and spacing in the tutorial--I'll fix that when I can.)
Thanks muchly to ~strangeh-stock for the pic of Willie, I just love cutting him out. Might make a second tutorial (blending backgrounds with layer masks) and put him somewhere other than blue.

Pft. Willie is the sexiest part of this tutorial. xD
And I'd never thought of using this way to cut stuff out. Then again, I don't do enough manipping to really explore the numerous methods of things. But yay! I'll have to give this a try sometime. <33!
