Richmantoo Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Eright, here's the dilemma. I'm trying to crop this little girl out of her background. Is there any way to get all of the green out of the indivdual strands of hair without having to go through and delete it all. Also, I tried boltbait's primary stripper plug-in, but it doesn't work for what I need, it just makes the whole image semi-transparent (great plug though). Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

spike 121 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 use the easy cut out process by tendercrisp, and then try to erase it magic wand should help as well Quote "No. Dreaming is illegal."~Pyrochild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Man Dan Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Ugh. Hair. The worst thing ever when it comes to masking and cutouts. In my Alpha Masking tutorial, I touch on hair, and a good, effective way to mask it out, but that kid has some crazy hair goin' on, with massively varying density and myriad directionality. I honestly don't see an "easy" way of doing this, not even if one were to use PhotoShop...

Ash Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Use http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1102 Change only green color range into all black. Shift key+Magic wand to select all black color. Hit delete key. That should get rid of most of em green, the rest, use Eraser Tool. Hope this helps.

usedHONDA Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I hate big fluffy hair. It's almost impossible to cut them out the way you want to.

Closest I could get to anything passable, I finally ended up turning the whole thing B&W after using the above method. Thanks!!!

Ash Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Here: I did a very quick job, You will need to use the Eraser Tool to clean it up more. After you put a back ground on another layer. Use feather (amount=5, Shrink) on the little girl's layer Should blend pretty well with the background. Kinda like: Quote All creations Ash + Paint.NET [ Googlepage | deviantArt | Club PDN | PDN Fan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
