the pen tool is the best way of rendering because you can undo your mistakes!! you can't do that with the lasso tool
click delete and it goes back to the last place you clicked foro polygon lasso when ever i do it i get this messed up color around it
Im not sure if your question was answered (not going through 10 pages) but if it wasnt here it is: You forgot to make anew path.
This is what I came up with and I'm using it for a re-designed banner for my BF2 site... I'm actually kind of disappointed no-one has yet done any BF2 Renders... This was my first attempt and I have a question... You'll notice on the M4 that the Sight at the end (Triangle) there is still some background color (I can't figure out how to make that area transparent). The other question is the same thing around his legs/knees... There's a space under his ass that still has the grey background from the render I pulled this from... http://img300.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1strender5dm.png Great tutorial, It beats the hell outta lasso anyday. Thanks for any advice BTW.
if u had a macintosh and u couldnt right click.... what would u do instead of it? intensity what u do is use the pen tool like it says in this tutorial and do what it says to make it invisible....i think. I found another way for use on a mac so i cant help much. if that dont work try the background eraser tool?
