Just as you can represent these areas with black, you can also represent the unselected areas with white. See Figure 7.35. It will also give you a simple mask where the areas that are selected are in white and the areas that are not selected will be in black, as shown in Figure 7.36. Refine Edge can also displayed as marching ants, as illustrated in Figure 7.37. Work in any view that suits you best and adjust the Radius to increase the size of the selection, or adjust the Contrast to define a sharper edge. You have options that will also adjust the smoothness of the edge to allow you to have a greater or lesser feathered edge. Use the Contract/Expand slider for small adjustments to the size of the selection. When you’re satisfied with the outline of a selection, commit the changes by clicking OK. You’ll see that the march- ing ants have inherited the parameters that you set in the Refine Edge dialog box. 4. Simply press the Delete key and the background will go away. See Figure 7.38. 5. Follow Steps 2 through 4 for the left profile, as shown in Figure 7.39.

You are going to use the JamesG2Head.jpg file as the template for creating the new texture that represents the face of the model on the digital images. Note that the UV map for James G2 is mostly dominated by a single, pinkish color. This is because this image is being used as the color map. The color map provides a con- sistent hue that will produce an even surface on the character. That is what you’re going to achieve by the end of this chapter. For now, you will use this UV map as a template to assist you in creating your own UV image map from photographic textures provided in the tutorials/ch7 folder. With the James UV map in the back- ground, add a couple adjustment layers to alter the color to black and white. Increase the contrast so that the dark outlines on the map are more prominent. Use Figure 7.40 as a guide to how your layers should look. The first adjustment layer is Hue/Saturation. Simply move the Saturation slider all the way to the left to remove all color from the image, thus making it black and white (see Figure 7.42). In addition, use levels to create greater contrast (see Figure 7.41). Change the blend mode to Darker Color so that the darker tonalities will stand out on top of the front view of the digital image that you will next place underneath the UV map. Now you can see the contour of the UV in relation to the face on digital image. You can use the original ...
