How to use PS Mask

1. 1

   Let's take a look at how these two pictures are fused using a layer mask, which is to remove the white background from the sparrow layer. PS Mask Black is not displayed, then we have to cover the white background in the mask to achieve the purpose.

2. 2

   In the Layers panel, click the Add Vector Mask button to add a mask to the layer with the sparrow.

3. 3

   We apply the selection tool (here we use the Magic wand, set the tolerance option) to make a white background selection.

4. 4

   Then, in combination with the paint bucket tool, the selection is filled with black in the layer mask (the fill foreground color shortcut is Alt+delete), and the white background is hidden. Description: All masks are shown in black, and all are hidden.

5. 5

   Press Ctrl+d shortcut key to cancel the selection, the effect is already out.

   END

PS Mask Use

1. What if you want to use a mask to remove one of the sparrows? You can select the mask, then set the foreground color to black, and use the brush tool to hide it where you don't want it.

2. If the error is applied incorrectly in the operation, you can set the foreground color to white so that the image can be applied back.

3. By lowering the opacity of the brush, you can get a transparent image, and the PS mask can be used in conjunction with brush tools, selection tools, etc., and is particularly flexible.

4. PS mask is so important because it gives the key to a large free space, not only can not destroy the material and can modify the recovery. So after learning the PS mask, you can use it as much as possible.
