mrpleasant Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I've got an issue with a sky replacement where patches of the original sky are showing between foliage where the selection wasn't good enough. One possible solution I'm trying is to create a filled layer with the predominant colour of the new sky then add a black mask to it and paint it in with a white brush using a blend mode that only affects lighter pixels. That should leave the foliage untouched, but overwrite the bright patches. Does that sound plausible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see the result on your screen when you try the method, so I don't understand why you are asking whether the method is plausible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpleasant Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 It's not working as I expected (painting with white is largely creating white marks rather than revealing the colour underneath). So the question is really am I on the right track with my theory and it's therefore worth persisting or is the whole approach wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
