to extract fur better then this!

have you tried feathering your selection before cutting it?

Try blending layers...

How did you do it?

have you tried feathering your selection before cutting it? yes, i have How did you do it? i used the extract tool (filters)

I was try to extract it but the background is really complicated, try to play with background eraser, it doesnt matter if you erase the part of the fur also. Just check the box next to the state before you start to erase in the history pallete, and use history brush tool (soft brush) to paint the fur back. Extract filter will somethimes do miracles and somethimes it will not do anything, it depends on the picture :) Tihomir

Well Bga, after trying the best you could to get an exact selection going and still the selection is not good enough, then its time to reconstruct the subject. In this case where the fur is fine it becomes very difficult to differentiate between the fine hair strands and white background.

Use the stamp tool using aligned and use all layers options in a new transparent layer. Further, in the brush palette check on shape dynamics altering the size jitter option leaving it at 0% but setting the control option to fade and the jitter steps to 10 with a minimum of 0. Also check on airbrush. Then go near the edge of the tail using a soft brush size of about 27 pixels and start brushing back in your detail. You can further use the smudge, sharpen and blur tools. Here I only did the tail.

Thank you to all for the quick response. Great hint..ty

Nice technique Quest :) Tihomir
