I've finished the cover for my new magazine!
goddamn savage

Exactly, forget about the eraser, old school and redundant now.
It's just so easy to make a layer mask press Ctrl + i to invert it, then paint white whatever you want to show (and then black to potentially erase bits you don't want to show).
I'm confused, do you think you could link a decent tutorial video on the procedure you're talking about?
Oh brother, brother.
Perfect thanks, yeah I knew what he meant regarding the control+I. I know what masks are I was just not utilizing them to the fullest potential. I imagine I will be able to produce 5 quality stoops in the time it would have taken me to produce one knowing how to effectively use layer masks. Thanks again.I am sure there are trillions of videos on the net that show you how to mask, so just Google it. There are so many techniques to doing this. I made this tutorial for @ArtOfDrowning yesterday. Maybe it will help you understand the absolute basics of masking.
You don't always have to use Inverse while masking, but at times it's easier to do so. The Inverse technique is generally, but not always, used when you want something to cover the face, such as the slap in the tutorial.
(As a side note, and not to confuse you, but @FlowchartKen's instructions, while helpful, are not 100% accurate. Ctrl+I will "Invert" the selection which means to make it a negative just like a negative for film photo. I believe he meant Shift+Ctrl+I which will "Inverse" the selection. "Inverse" means to select the area you don't have selected at the time. This is the same technique used in this mini tutorial where it says to use "Select > Inverse" in the 3rd picture.)
edit: If you or anybody needs any more help on this, feel free to PM me. I will talk your ear off.
Can someone template these without the bowl and make the shirt plain black plz

Hey BWR, actually no I did mean exactly that, inverting the pixels
It's something I do out of habit when I make a layer mask, as when masking faces or other components, you want most of the layer black (hidden) right?
So it doesn't really make sense the mask starts off white, with all pixels visible. So I just make the mask, then quickly press Ctrl+i, then paint over a face in white for example
could've gone in the other direction and shooped the bowl into the child's hands
thanks for the template bud! really nice shoop but I think the threads almost done for hits
