Here . . . I cheated and used Topaz ReMask 5


Thanks for your efforts, weddingguy. Looks great. I have Topaz ReMask but I guess I don't understand car edges very well because my attempts just didn't cut it. I really need to practice extracting stuff every day methinks.

Although the pen tool is the best selection tool, it takes time to master and seems like a big step for a beginner. At your skill level, I suggest you use the Quick Selection tool to do a rough, then use Quick Mask to paint in or out the parts of the selection that are imperfect (there will be many). If you know how to use the brush, you can master Quick Mask very quickly and leave the pen until you have more experience.

Thanks for you input, Joe. I have a LOT to learn but I'm game!
