Sweet deal, you should post the render... Also, show how "Dream Does It"... I'd like to zone into this aspect, might benifit my other areas... ONLY thing that I'm not sure about is the "haz", either font, size, opacity of something.

Thanks, Quix.

Yeah, I agree with the font.
That's the one area where I really struggle.
Guess I'm a perfectionist, Hmph.

Once I get better, I will make a tutorial.
Right now I take a lot of unnecessary(sp?) steps,
Which causes me to take like 5x longer than most people!

The render I used was: ImageWas a nice find, since it was easy to cut.

Questions:

What tool do you use to cut from original image?

Nice sig! I have a hard time with blending multiple renders.

Answers:

Nope, I don't feather.
I use the lasso tool, freehand.
Tracing small sections at a time, delete.

Before I start to cut out renders,
I copy the image onto a "transparent" background.

Once I place the finished render onto the background,
I use the "Opacity" tool to help blend it.
Then, I will match a brush to the background, and finish edging.

Well thanks fellas...


Dream, funny thing, I always cut the entire image and right clicked selection > new layer via cut... I never thought to just delete the outside piece by piece lol. I tried last night, makes rendering a whole lot better lol. On another note, you ever use the blur tool for blending renders? Is there something better than the blur tool in your opinion?

Oh my. That's intense!
Well, I'm glad it helped you! =D

I used to use the blur tool for renders,
But I found that I liked using brushes much better.
I just find they blend the image much better,
and the renders almost become part of the background.

I download all of my brushes from DeviantArt.com,
I'm not sure if you have tried it - But check it out!
