I am having the hardest time cutting this head out for another use. I've tried everything but somewhere along the line I always screw it up and it isn't a smooth cut. I would be greatly appreciated if someone could cut it out for me.....

I'd like to have the white an black edges kept with the cut out if possible (just remove the silver brushed steel)

Thanks to anyone who has the time to help me out...

If it`s the head you are after, you could search in google for thundercats.

http://www.stickergirl.com/images/Thundercats.jpg <-- white head should be real easy to cut it out and rework it.

or this one: http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff246/g...thundercats.jpg

Tip!

Open one of the top pictures in Adobe Illustrator and go around the head with the pentool.
When you are done you`ll have the head in vector format and can blow it up as big as you want.

An other method could be to select the head with the magicwand in Photoshop and trace it in Illustrator.

I've have those 2 images that you provided. It's not that I don't know how rto cut it, but for some reason on this image I can't vut it out smoothly somehow I always leave an indent of the lines are not smooth (more wavey). The reason I want to use the image provided is because of how the eye is slanted and how it comes to points under the ear and behind the jaw.

thank yo for yor help though

That's Perfect thanks for the help Passkes. I guess I just don't know how to use the pen tool correctly?

Thanks again for all the help.

Your welcome :)

The pentool is actually real easy to learn.

Have look at this mini tutorial:

Feel free to ask when you get stuck with the pentool.

I have had photoshop for about 2 year now and not long ago found out about the pen tool, think i saw a video on you tube, as i was using the polygonal lasso tool, and it was a bugger if i made a mistake as i would have to start all over again.
