I have explained it as clear as possible, this tutorial is not for people that are new to photoshop as I outlined in the tutorial Once you get a bit more familiar with photoshop come back and try this one out and post the results, I'll be keen to have a look at it !

baca3 [2013-03-25 20:21:37 +0000 UTC]

How do you make the brush clear? Is it just white? Cause I used white and it is eh... But I want it to look like how yours does

alekSparx In reply to baca3 [2013-05-07 13:33:19 +0000 UTC]

sorry for the late reply !
under the brush mode options on the top drop down tool bar it should be (Normal etc etc) down the list you should come to clear, from my memory it should be before overlay :3 hope this helped slightly

Art-0f-Madness In reply to baca3 [2013-03-28 13:35:01 +0000 UTC]

when you select your brush go up to the brush mode drop down menu at the top, it should say normal, click on that menu at the Clear mode should be there!

alekSparx In reply to SassyChix [2012-11-03 00:49:03 +0000 UTC]
