You're spot on, even though I use layer masks regularly, I will need to watch this a few times! You've given a sensational tip on selecting an object on the layer below to assist, I just now have to get it into my brain & practice, to take advantage of this big time saver (not to mention the increased accuracy). Thanks again Colin!
Hello again and thank you for another great tutorial. If there is one thing (amongst many others) I love about PS, it is masking! There is something so very satisfying and actually rather therapeutic about being able to paint out (or of course back in again) parts of a layer. Masks have so many uses and are great fun to use!
I too had never thought of using selections and masks together. I've now seen the vid twice and followed it through step by step once and I might be ready to try it alone....might....maybe!
Great job. I love tutorials that are short and to the point like this one. It really helps when you use images that are practical too. Some tutorials out there are far too basic or far too complicated. This was very well done.
Great video, Colin. I've been doing this sort of thing a long time but did not think about using the selections to assist with the masking. Certainly makes it easier. Thanks.
Good exercise to get familiar with layers and selections. Now to interlock 6 wedding bands in a circular fashion to really get the hang of the process. Thanks Colin.
Hi Collins. Very nice tutorial. Sometimes I find myself getting confused, but when you start practicing the idea sticks. You should do more of these types of tutorials with masking. For example not only interlocking objects, but putting things on front or back, inserting objects, etc. I really enjoyed this one.
@@photoshopcafe Thanks - I design clothing in an on-line game - my store there is "Cats n' Kittens Boutique (CnK)" - and I'm definitely a true blue Crazy Cat Lady - I never thought there would be a place that was exactly the right pace that I'm at in PS. Thanks for all the tuts so far and more to come
Hi Colin, I just got Photoshop 2 weeks ago and am finding your Beginner's Tutorials really helpful. Thank you. Have you done anything previously on setting up Photoshop? I find that the colour I see in Photoshop is different to the colour of my image after it has been saved to my PC. Any help gratefully received. Thanks again.
Had no trouble with this at all, great explanation! But now I need to travel back in time 7 years and slap my younger self and stop him reducing the opacity of the top layer and taking it away with the eraser for far too long.
You still don't provide the pictures for those of us who would want to follow along with you. C'mon man. You've been doing these forever now. Others provide the pic.
@@photoshopcafe you did...i know. Would be easier to just have a link in the description ready for us so we can download and follow a long. I know you're not going to do it...just saying man.

Never get "TIRED" watching your tutorials .... always learning something even though I often have to watch over and over. Thanks for all your sharing!

I agree, they ARE fun

Good luck on that :) I hope your brain doesn't explode
Thank you Colin. I have to practice!!!

Always good to see how to use masks. Even for us old dogs!
Thanks, Masks are very useful
@@photoshopcafe In more way than one right now! :)
Wonderful explanation. Thank you Colin. I was able to figure it out pretty quickly. Was interested in creating the donut in 3D and tried it that way.
Lovely trick to use! :)
Thanks for sharing!!
There were new things I learned and things I picked up earlier!
Another fantastic tutorial thanks Colin I had to watch it a couple of times.
Thanks for the very interesting tutorial

Yeah, or changing the layer from "Normal" to "Multiply". )))
Great!
U Da Man!!!

Thumbs UP!
Same process when interlocking letters?
Yes, same for anything
Didn't get it at all. :(
