(It doesn't need to be precise, just select around the edges) - After you've done with the selection, Mask the layer. - Then RIGHT click on the Mask Layer, and click on Refine Mask. - After that, paint over the edges of the object to select the hair or fur around the edges. (After you've done, click 'Apply) - It's basically done if you take a look at the output, but here you can try to make it more precise. - Hold Alt and click on the mask layer, after that you'll see that the object turn into white color. - If you find any transparent area inside the object, you can use brush tool, and set the foreground color to white, then paint over the transparent area to fix it. I hope this can help you, thanks and have a good day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wim Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Good afternoon, Thank you for your explanation. After the mask it won't work. That's my problem. Think I'm forgetting to do something. Go try again. Nice day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telemax Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Wow, I didn't know it was possible to fill any pixel layer with color using the "Gradient Tool" (G) and just choosing a color!
