Does anybody here want to design an illusion style? How about a fantasy style of design? Do you want to learn how to cut your photos and make them the main element of your poster? Then here’s a simple tutorial for you
Now, I’m going to show how to cut the background of pictures using Adobe Photoshop (in any version).
By this time cuties, I want you to be creative. When I am showing you my steps on designing, you should try to experiment on your own
Don’t forget my lines, try to experiment on your own way. Let us explore the different techniques.
Hey! What is Chimera? It’s just like we are dreaming?

Now, choose a photo you want to use, and we will cut its background. I used Song Hye Gyo from [x].
Adobe Photoshop cutting the background.
1. Using Pen Tool 
2. On the toolbar options, use Path option.

3. Click on the starting side of your picture like the image below.

4. Once again click on the next side of your picture, and drag your pointer to make a curve line between the points that you have. Observe that we have two angle in one point.

5. To eliminate one angle on a point, just press ALT on your keyboard and at the same time click on the last point that you have.

6. Then repeat creating a points on the side of your picture.

7. Do step 4 and 5 repeatedly until you reach the last point.

8. Have you reached the last point? Now right click on the middle of your picture, then select “Make Selection…”

9. Do this options.

10. Hit delete key on your keyboard to remove the background.

You have already deleted your background!
Hey, how about creating a cloudy, fantasy style of background?
Relax, hehe! Here’s how to make a cloudy, fantasy style of background.
Adobe Photoshop cloudy and fantasy style of background.
Hide your cut picture by clicking the “eye” icon on your layers palette.
1. From your tool bar, set your Foreground color to black, and Background color to any color you want to use. I used dark yellow green.
2. New Layer > fill your canvas to make it black.
Wanna see my working screen in photoshop?
3. Filter > Render > Difference Clouds.
4. New Layer > Fill the canvas with Foreground Color of black > Set your Background Color to orange (or any color that you want). Then repeat step #2. Erase some part of your orange cloud using the Eraser Tool. Take a look my working screen.
5. Want it to look lively? Then get some brushes at Brusheezy, look for a star brushes. And use it for your background.
6. You can add moon, planets or anything that you want to make it more lively. Make sure that for every element of the picture you have, you must always create a new layer.
7. I just erased the left side of Song Hye Gyo to make it look like she’s hiding on the cloud. And duplicated her layer and flipped to Horizontal: Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal.
Like I usually do, I want to experiment as always
And got my output above as my blog poster design.
I hope you have learned how to cut your background, and do a simple fantasy style of design. You should try to experiment each of my steps, then you will feel that your creativity is improving
That’s all for now! I am currently working on my documents for a job. I hope I could start my job as a Web and Graphic Designer as soon as possible. Don’t worry, I can still post some tips and tutorials for you! See you!

Hey welcome to my blog!
reading tutorials online is recommended
Use all the tools one-by-one in photoshop, then try work on it with your picture para makita mo yung output ng gawa mo, kasi kung blank page lang tpos gagamitin mo ung tools, wala ka makikita. Try mo gamitin sarili mong picture tpos experiment mo isa isa ung tools
