Crabageddon






The tools I used were

Patch Tool:

I used this to remove the rocky regions in the background of the image. This was done in one smooth action. I used the Patch Tool as it will remove what I select and then to the best of its’ ability blend the area that is left to fit in with the surroundings.


Just draw around the area using the patch Tool just as you do using the Lasso Tool, and press Delete.

 

Here we can see the rocks have been removed and PS has done its best to create a seamless replacement.

 

 

Content-Aware Move Tool:

This tool is used to move something currently on the image to somewhere else on the image. It will then so as the Patch Tool does and blend the area the selection was with the rest of the image; and where you place the selection will be blended with the new location. This tool is used to relocate sections of an image, such as in this case the jeep on the left side of the image to be closer to the other jeep.


Draw round the object you wish to move using the C-AM Tool, be sure to get anything related to object that will look out of place if left behind, such as the shadow of this jeep to its’ left.

 

Then simply drag the selected area to wherever you want to place it on the image. When you place it the area it was will be blended seamlessly, and the outline of the object you moved will be blended to fit its new surroundings.

 

 

 

 

Here we have the jeep in its new location, shadow as well; it has been placed in a position to make the size comparison look realistic.

 

 

 

 

Below is the finished image next to the original.





I went a bit further and added a crab, because why not.
