Okay so I have this image:



And I cannot find an easy and effective way to remove the blue background that keeps the hair and body intact.

Please help!

What I do when I need to make a cob out of something is do a ctrl+j, make a new layer in-between the two copies and fill it with a bright color such as #ec008c. Then I zoom in a lot to erase the background. However I don't really erase around the hair just yet since I use a softer brush for that area. Just remember that it takes patience and a steady hand. thumbsup.gif
