Select the Crop tool (2 nd icon down) and adjust the box outline to remove the background. If the colours don’t quite look right you can click the Sun icon, scroll down the list and adjust ‘Brightness’, ‘Exposure’ and ‘Contrast’ – adjust them just a little to make it perfect. Note: You can also add bits back in if you make a mistake – change the tool from ‘Remove’ to ‘Keep’ Aim to keep the eyes, mouth, nose and chin of the front face but blend it with the side. Make the brush a good size with the slider, and put the softness above 50%. Then select the Scissors icon, then ‘Draw Cutout’. First select the side face layer (on the right) so it has a blue border. Merge the two faces by removing parts of the side picture. If you need you can rotate a little with the blue dot at the top.

Otherwise you can remove the background by hand using the Eraser from the Drawing tools.Ĭhoose the Move tool (top icon). Click on the background it should disappear. If you have a nice one-colour background (like a blue wall), choose the Scissor tool, then ‘Magic Cutout’, and ‘Remove’, leave the tolerance around 30, set the ‘Softness’ the ‘Medium’ and make sure ‘Contiguous’ is On. Note : the blue border around the layer boxes on the right shows which layer you are editing. Repeat this to add the side faces into the layers above. It will load into the layers on the right. Choose ‘Image’ and select your front facing photo.

Use this simple step by step guide to create your own 3D head in a jar and blend 3 photos of your own head!įor this we’ll need a digital camera to take some pictures, and then we’ll be using Pixlr (which is a bit like Photoshop) where we will upload and edit our photos. During our annual Summer Camp event we created spooky Halloween heads in jars.
