No Background:
Level: Beginner

Made by: ChazyChaz

This is the photo i used for this tutorial

First you need to make a layer of your picture before you
delete the background.
Just double click on the layer (Background) and it will become a
layer. You can see when its a layer when the lock is gone.
Now you can delete the background.
You can do that many different ways, you can use the lasso tool, or the eraser.
I always use a layer mask (see the blending tutorial)
cause if i make a mistake i can "draw" the picture back,
its really easy to undo mistakes with a layer mask.





Background/Layer





Just erase it with a soft black brush





Make it smaller if you're doing the edges, so you wont erase too much. A small er brush is more accurate.





It should look like this when you're done.

When you deleted the whole background you have to save it as a
.PNG cause if you save it as a .jpeg it will get a white background.
png saves without the background.






And this is the result:


I you can use this tutorial, and if you got questions you can always PM me
