Cutting out renders


Step 1 - Find Your Image

Ok find the image you want. I used this one from google. You can use it for practice.

OK so copy the image and go to photoshop, go to file new and it will give you the size because you copied it. Then what you will do is grab the pen tool.

Step 3 - Zooming In

Now your going to zoom in. Thats the button that looks like a magnifying glass. Click on that and zoom in to a comfortable level by left clicking. The more you zoom in the longer time it will take but the better the cutout will be. Once you are zoomed in use the pen tool to go around the whole image where you wanted cut and left click around the edges. Once you come to the end that's where you will connect the points by clicking on your first point again.

Step 4 - Cut It Out

Once all the points are together, it should be just a outline. Ok after you've done that go to windows and click on paths. Once your there right click, and press selection.

Step 5 - New File

Ok once its selected, go to edit and cut. Then click file/new document. The size should be set for you. Open it and then go to edit/paste and your cut out image should there. You've done it, you just cut out a render. This is what you can use your newly cut out image for.
