I was doing the tentacle tutorial on this webpage and was wondering how i would go about masking off certain chunks of the tentacles so they would have the appearacne of interttwining. See i can mask it off then use the laso tool and then airbrush it away, but the lasso tool doesn't grab the exact edge. So it doesn't look real, i can also just pencil it away, but then again i have to draw it perfcect and there usually is errors. My question.. Is there a way to Mark off only a certain part that will be exactly the part i need marked for masking?? Oh god does this sound confusing! sorry everyone. jereme.gfxsites.net/tutor...tacles.php

Try selecting (ctrl-click) the layer underneath, and going into Quick-Mask mode (Q) and painting back in the parts that you don't want deleted.
