1. Re: Can you help me retouching hair?
c.pfaffenbichler Apr 8, 2012 2:20 AM (in response to Dubai_Dave)You may have to manually create a Mask and also decontaminate both hair and background.
Could you post a higher res (section of the) image?

2. Re: Can you help me retouching hair?
c.pfaffenbichler Apr 8, 2012 2:25 AM (in response to Dubai_Dave)And are you doing retouching in CMYK instead of the original RGB?
If so: Bad idea, in my opinion.

Dubai_Dave Apr 8, 2012 3:07 AM (in response to Dubai_Dave)I did create the mask using a brush and then refine edges but still get the feathered effect - and yeah CMYK but could do it in RGB. The issue is the correct election / mask which is very difficult.
I think on here it downsamples the image anyway? Could I email t to you to take a look for any advice?
Thanks,
Dave

c.pfaffenbichler Apr 8, 2012 3:18 AM (in response to Dubai_Dave)It downsamples the image displayed in the thread, but if one clicks on that one can get a bigger image – not sure what maximal dimensions/size, though.

Trevor.Dennis Apr 8, 2012 4:16 AM (in response to c.pfaffenbichler)I'm not going to even try it at that res. I have a feeling the limit is governed by file size rather than pixels.

8. Re: Can you help me retouching hair?
Dubai_Dave Apr 9, 2012 3:36 AM (in response to c.pfaffenbichler)yeah I had another layer on hair on top of that so that's not on the original.
Anyway, I just can't see how it can be done looking natural. The fact that it's so blonde coming over a white top with her skin showing through means it could take days and days.
What do you think?

c.pfaffenbichler Apr 9, 2012 3:43 AM (in response to Dubai_Dave)I think it is a task where automatic selection may be of limited help and a lo tot manual work may have to be put into it – but hardly days and days.
And like I hinted at in post 1 it might be helpful to manually remove the background in the foreground and vice versa.
