Layer Masks
This is similar to layering but you can blend the photographs together. The quality of the images improves drastically when your own photographs are used- these are not my images.

Layer Masks
This is similar to layering but you can blend the photographs together. The quality of the images improves drastically when your own photographs are used- these are not my images.
Made a Mandala-styled design today in CAD. A few little hiccups later and we have a not very accurate but ‘unique’ design.

LAYERING
In today’s CAD lesson, we learnt the basics of layering imagery.
You first need to open the images you want to use, in my case it was a black chair in a white room and the sketch wallpaper.
This is a very simple way of getting an image onto the background. Firstly, Select the wall by using the magic wand tool and clicking on the wall. ‘Shift’ to add to the selection.
Press ‘Q’ to enter ‘mask mode’ which should highlight the image you are not covering in red.
Use the regular paint brushes to add or subtract from the mask.
Brushes: Black: reveals. White: conceals.
Press Q to take you back to marching ants and inverse your selection. (select > inverse or shft+cmd+i)
Copy and paste image.
Find, copy and paste your chosen image to place into your current canvas.
Move the new layer in-between the background and the foreground image.
You can alter the effects (drop down ‘normal’ menu above layers) to make the images more realistic.
VOILA.
Hopefully this makes sense.
