dan1966 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hello everyone, Glad to finally join this community. Paint.net has been so awesome where much of my art for anime, furry fiction writing is concerned. One thing I have not picked up on yet is how to chose a completed color object on a white background and erase the background without having to go to magnification and hand trim around the border of the object. Clearing this up for me would save me a lot of time. Can anyone point me to a good tutorial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyReZ Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) Greetings, I would use the Wand Tool set to a tolerance of 45 to erase the background and the remaining white between the characters legs.https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/MagicWand.html Also I would use the eraser to remove the artifacts on the right side of the character.https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/EraserTool.html Edited March 25, 2019 by HyReZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan1966 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thank you so much HyReZ and Welshblue for your help on this. 100 percent benefit! And thank you for the drawing compliment. I'll find the layer tutorial on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyReZ Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) @dan1966 You are welcome! Here is a link to a great video tutorial explaining the Layers feature of Paint.NET. It is mainly about using layers with photo images and not drawings, but the concepts are similar. Edited March 25, 2019 by HyReZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
