How do i fade a picture so i can see the background through it?
When you start a new image, choose TRANSPARENT background
You will have a canvas with a checkered background
Paste in your background
On a new layer paste in your image
Use the eraser tool set at a low opacity (10 to 30 % ?) and erase until you have as much transparency as you want.
I would use a soft (hardness 1) round brush with spacing 0.
There are probably more elegant ways to do this… but this seems to work
no, thats the best and most thorough way to do it. :good:
for a quick way, you can just lower the layers opacity on the “Layers” pallette til it looks transparent enough, but do50’s way means you can vary the opacity, blending it more effectively.
or this is what i do, i use the lasso tool, not the polygon lasso tool or magnet one, and at the top there is a option called feather i put it from 5-15 pxl’s and draw around the render then go to edit>copy, andthen on the sig you want the render go to edit>paste
