That's the one I used, I recommend

 

Pen tool is definetely the best.

 

i use lasso tool

 

I use lasso tool lately, but how do I make the background transparent?

I use it and then when i put on a sig it has a white background.

 

Are you saving your render as a PNG?
Saving as JPGs give white backgrounds.

 

make sure there is a layer beneath the image and that the layer is transparent.

 

Agreed, the pen tool's great

 

any 1 here know any site where i can get some awsom brushes n 3d brushes??
