Bek Posted March 11, 2016 Author Posted March 11, 2016 Okay now I dont know what Im doing wrong but for the life of me I cannot work out the next step, please help me understand?
Damien Symonds Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Now mask VERY carefully down that right-hand side of the people.
Bek Posted March 14, 2016 Author Posted March 14, 2016 Should I keep the brush at 100% opacity? & should it be a soft brush yeh?
Christina Keddie Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 1 minute ago, Bek said: Should I keep the brush at 100% opacity? & should it be a soft brush yeh? ALWAYS a soft brush (0% hardness). Make the brush a lot smaller to get precision (and zoom way in on your image as needed), but never any harder.
Bek Posted March 14, 2016 Author Posted March 14, 2016 Okay, I cant believe I actually got this done I honestly didnt think I could do it. So the next step, you said you did a mimic of the other side. Whats the best way to do that?
Damien Symonds Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Hey, great! Now just keep copying what I did. A couple of Solid Color layers next.
Bek Posted March 15, 2016 Author Posted March 15, 2016 With the solid layers, did you invert then rub off, leaving the bit on the right? I cant quite make out how you did it?
Damien Symonds Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 I inverted, then used the polygonal lasso tool to select the straight line, and filled in the lower area with white.
Bek Posted March 15, 2016 Author Posted March 15, 2016 Have I got this bit right? Or is it looking odd?
Damien Symonds Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 Looks good. May I see a 100% crop of the area?
Bek Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 hahahhahahhah I just realised I gave you the image you worked on, LOL sorry hang on a minute ......
Damien Symonds Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Great. So, click on the mask of one of those layers, and apply a little bit of Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur, to make the edge just soft enough to be plausible. Then repeat on the mask of the other layer.
Bek Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 Cool, I'll do that now ...............you have nooooo idea how much I appreciate all this help!
Bek Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 Im almost finished Ive added the noise & the last part is to add that bit of carpet in from the other image. What steps do I take for that?
Damien Symonds Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Exactly as I taught you in the Pixel Layers section of the Layers & Masks Class.
Bek Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 There's a good point............where do I get my layer & masks class since the move over here? I think it was end of last year that I bought it.
Damien Symonds Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 No, it hasn't moved yet. It's still on FB.
Bek Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 I cant find it on FB, would you be able to send me the link please? I checked my emails but only have my receipt & paypal invoice to go by ...............sorry being painful I know!

Even though this layer is first in the stack, it's actually the last thing I did. The second and third layers are this method. The fourth and fifth layers were to mimic the baseboard from the other side. The sixth layer is the all-important noise layer which must be used when adding gradients. The seventh layer is a chunk of carpet from the other photo you gave me, and the eighth layer was to darken that carpet a bit. @solley
