Hi,
I have some trouble removing veins from eyes. I have tried clone stamp but it messes the tonality if the eye. I have tried hue/saturation but it leaves the veins black. Is there no way to directly go from black veins to white veins that have a value equal to their immediate sorroundings? Seems to me this would be fast and secure!!
Any ideas?
Thanks
Juan Dent
The technique I use is the clone stamp tool with the blend mode set to lighten and the flow and opacity set to around 30%. This will just effect the veins and not anything else and it looking too bright and unnatural. With a low flow and opacity use a small brush and keep going over the veins until you are satified with the result. Another point, the veins are natural and I find it looks better toning them down rather that totally eliminating them
Hope this helps
Mike
