JMB Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 Hello Damien, I was wondering if you can suggest a way of removing the picture from above the chair? I have tried the spot healing brush tool and the clone stamp tool, but neither seem to work very well on the blue colour. Is there a better technique or tool to use? Many thanks Jon
Damien Symonds Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 Oh boy, these aren't easy. This is the method you need to use: https://www.damiensymonds.net/preventing-banding-in-backdrops/ Does this look satisfactory?
JMB Posted February 15, 2018 Author Posted February 15, 2018 Oh excellent! Looks great. Thanks will give the method above a try.
Damien Symonds Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 It's a really difficult one, especially if you've never used gradients before. Download my PSD to see the layers I used.
JMB Posted February 15, 2018 Author Posted February 15, 2018 Yeah just finding that out now! Should have taken the picture off the wall...
JMB Posted February 19, 2018 Author Posted February 19, 2018 I had a quick try, but it didn't go well. I am going to sit down this week and try again whilst closely following your video as well! Will let you know how I get on. Thanks 1
JMB Posted February 22, 2018 Author Posted February 22, 2018 Hi Damien, Here is my attempt. I think it went ok. Anything I could have done better? There does seem to be some vertical lines where the picture used to be. is there anything that can be done about that? Thanks Jon

Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Hmmm ... everything seems to be in order there. I can't see why there would be lines. Did you remember to check the "Dither" box for each of the gradients?
JMB Posted February 22, 2018 Author Posted February 22, 2018 Yeah, just checked and the Dither is ticket for them all. I followed all the settings from your PSD file above. ticked*
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Gosh, I really don't know, sorry. Can you send me one of the PSD files? https://spaces.hightail.com/uplink/BellePhotography
JMB Posted February 22, 2018 Author Posted February 22, 2018 How very strange! Thanks, uploading the file at the moment. Should be with you any min
Damien Symonds Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Got it, thanks. It's as smooth as silk, I promise. Absolutely no lines at all. If you're seeing lines it must be a problem with your screen, not your file.
JMB Posted February 22, 2018 Author Posted February 22, 2018 Oh, haha. ok thanks. Will have a look on a different screen. Thanks for having a look
