character Material

Key out of the material of the hair, is a relatively difficult to pull the picture, magic wand, set rope, pen tool to pull the hair is not good, the conventional cutout method only channel and filter extraction can do this, the comparison, the figure filter drawing effect slightly better. But the following is attached to the character material, if using a single cutout method, the effect will certainly be worse. To do this, use a filter to pull out the hair, and the rest to be keyed with a lasso or pen tool.

1, point to open the filter to pull out, the character material into the following a new page (to save the layout so reduced, see), the value is the software default value.

2, with the mouse point in the upper left corner "edge of the high-gloss tool," the mouse into a round, with the mouse on the edge of the hair drift carefully smear, if too much to erase the character part, the eraser tool can be wiped off a part. Other parts of the character to use other methods to pick better, so this part should be kept intact, and the characters enclosed in the high-light circle, or cannot be drawn out.

3, point in the "filling tool", then point in the high-light circle of the characters, the circle into a blue.

4, click the same page in the upper right corner of the "good" word, got the following, hair silk basic complete key out.

5, the character around the other background, according to the method of instance one enlarge, use the Lasso or pen tool to cut off. The effect is as follows:

Example 2 key out the blue sky and white clouds in the branches

With the blue Sky White cloud landscape as a single or single aesthetic sound painting can, but to combine in the hillside scenery large map is not. If there is a blue sky halfway up the hill, will it be a few heavy days? Obviously does not conform to natural phenomena. Therefore, the combination of the landscape in the hillside, the blue sky should be part of the key. To key out of the branches of the blue sky and white clouds, only with the channel cutout effect is the best, simple. Channel Cutout Tutorial I have written that the basic rules are no longer detailed here, just a few more words on the complex part.

1, open "Blue sky landscape Material" (see), point into the channel surface version, this picture blue channel black and white contrast is highest, therefore, select Blue channel cutout is the best channel.

2. Copy the Blue channel , adjust the color scale, adjust the parameter value and the best effect see the figure below.

3, from the adjustment of the color price to see, there is a part of the mountain and water should be retained white, if the direct key, will be the landscape part of the incomplete; If this part is turned black, on inside the branches of the blue sky and white clouds can not be plucked out. Therefore, the color scale adjustment should be cut off the blue sky and white clouds, the mountains and water white place and then fill the black, so that this part is not cut off, see below the "Blue 2" figure:

4, cut off the blue sky and white clouds. namely: image-adjust-reverse phase, on the channel surface click on the "Load channel as a selection"-point layers Panel-Background layer, point menu bar Layer-new-through the copied layer, and then back to the layers panel to close the front of the background layer "eyes", see the effect.

　　Each kind of cutout method has its merits, but also has certain limitation, relative, the channel cutout and the pen tool cutout diagram apply the widest range. But in the actual drawing process, you will encounter a lot of background complex material, discard, can only be selected according to the various parts of the key method to achieve your ideal effect.
