1nf1n1ty Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 i removed the background from a picture of a helicopter and made the helicopter one color but it looks pixelated i was wondering how to make this image smoother or can paint.net not do that (if not then what are other ways) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ardneh Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Depending on your starting image you might get a better result using a different method for removing the background. You can improve the image that you have by applying Gaussian blur at default, duplicating the layer twice, merging layers and running AA's Assistant plugin effect. The remaining jaggy edges on the horizontal rotors can be reduced by making a Rectangular selection around the parts of the rotor you want to smooth and using Motion blur.

Red ochre Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 For this particular image the Basic Anti-alias plugin here seems to work slightly better than ardneh's suggested more general approach.

lynxster4 Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 Hi @idesign Boltbait's Feather plugin can be found in his pack here: It's in the OBJECT menu, but you must be running the latest version of paint.NET. 1 Quote My Art Gallery | My Shape Packs | ShapeMaker Mini Tut | Air Bubble Stained Glass Chrome Text with Reflections | Porcelain Text w/ Variegated Coloring | Realistic Knit PatternOpalescent Stained Glass | Frosted Snowman Cookie | Leather Texture | Plastic Text | Silk Embroidery Visit my Personal Website "Never, ever lose your sense of humor - you'll live longer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
