You are correct that there is no snow in the last cut, but whatever method you used to remove it, "burnt" it all instead. Snow is probably not the right word for it

I've cleaned the snow from your first cut using the method outlined in this video and I think it provides a more natural-looking cut.

 

Yes , very well. I have been cutting that for a month and i don't have photoshop. I must have taken a bad duplicate sample. So i posted two cuts.

To be honest , i don't like to cut because it is very precise work and i have very fragile eyes.

I took an hour to make this cut while the existing cut was already very good. I think i would have done better to watch a film. I remind you that my work is free.

If my work is not good enough i can stop cutting. So lacme31 can learn to cut like i did.

If you're uploading a completed cut, we don't need to see the original source so save yourself some time and avoid doing it from now on 😉

 

Also, if you have multiple sources in hand, again please save yourself some time and make a decision as to which will provide the better cut and upload only that one. No use doing two cuts when only one can be added into the megapack.

 

One more thing, you've nudged the shoulder upwards but the collar doesn't seem to be visible. Just keep it in mind for next time 😉

 

Finally, there's a bit of snow in the hair - watch this video to see how you can easily spot and fix it for the future:

 

I don't have multiple sources in hand. When i proposed a source for this player the january 10 , 2021 , i did not know how to cut otherwise unlike some , i would have cut it myself. It is someone else who proposed to recut this player with a more recent source. I didn't want to recut this player at all , i wanted to be nice and here is the result. Yes i keep it in mind for next time. Sorry but i don't see any snow in the last cut out face.

@mons 

Please , reject this request. He was only in FM2015 and FM2016.

You have to be really stupid to make such a request. It is to take the cutters for idiots.

Try to download an image in “remove.bg”. You will see the big difference for the cutout et the background is erased so.

Can you elaborate on “I don't like the first source , it looks like a photo reconstructed on photoshop”? The exposure of the photo (and the other SM Caen player photos) is a bit too bright in my opinion but otherwise it's completely fine.

The second is blurry compared to the first - screencaps of a video are generally inferior to professional-quality photoshoots.

For the third, it's not necessarily that he is sweating, but because he is looking away from the camera. “Action shots” of players during matches are to be avoided wherever possible because of this reason, as well as that they are likely to be blurry, because the player is in motion and the photographer has to take the photo quickly instead of having time to get a sharp focus in the image.

I agree with almost everything you said. For the sources of the Caen pack , it depends on the players , most give a very good result , but some are less successful in my opinion , sometimes my fault because i went up too much the collar.

The second is a bit blurry but it's really very light. It's not the sceencaps the problem , it's the movement in the video that makes it a bit blurry but you already know that. I did some screencaps when the person is still , it doesn't blur at all.

In the first , it is especially the raised collar which spoils the quality a little in my opinion and the second is newer and more natural too. I liked the third one which is the most recent but the angle , the player's gaze and the sweat spoil everything.

The third one isn't from the most ideal source, and isn't looking at the camera. Please @77david54, I again urge you to use your time more productively by avoiding cutting sources which won't be making it into the megapack. In the time it took you to do that cut, you could have done another one which will be going into the MP 😉

I think you will put the first in the megapack but personally i think the second is better. I did not erase the little snow from the second because i will not waste my time. I don't like the first source , it looks like a photo reconstructed on photoshop. And i don't like to go up the collar , it doesn't look natural and i always take it too high. For the third , i now know that a player who sweats , it is not worth cutting.

The one you've cut now isn't bad but there's a bit of the head missing on the left side of the cut due to the darkness of the source which remove.bg hasn't quite cut correctly.

 

What's wrong with the pending excellent source though? I'm not sure I understand why you've decided to cut 2 inferior sources, with the difficulties they entail, when an excellent source is available to cut, which will certainly produce a great cut quickly and with very little difficulty.

It bothers me that i am told each time that my sources are inferior , the sources of the Caen pack , i find them in 5 seconds per player and 1 minute per staff member. Now i will cut players who have nothing waiting for preference.

@77david54, we overlapped our cuts, sorry 🙂

 

The reason we have these rules is to (a) ensure that the cuts being produced are of the best possible quality and (b) ensure that cutters' time is used as productively as possible. We keep mentioning this because it's not really a good use of your time in terms of how likely it is that a cut that you do is added to the megapack.

 

If a source is available which hasn't been rejected, it's likely that it's good enough to be cut, so use it and avoid spending loads of time looking for other sources 😉

No big deal. I will know that we must put in working. It's the first time for me so it doesn't happen often. I still prefer the previous source , it looks more natural.

For the hair , it is not remove.bg , it is photopea.com who wrongly detected , i cut a little too short but i saw only black so not easy and i nevertheless increased the brightness.

@77david54, it's not a bad cut, but I don't understand why you went to the trouble of finding a smaller, lower quality source of him not looking at the camera when such an excellent source was available.

 

Screenshot of still videos will never be as good as a high-quality photoshoot image, irrespective of the video quality.

Sorry but i do not agree at all. Already i find the other horrible source for this player. The image is missing pixels and the player does not look like that at all in real life. My source is from february 5 , 2021 , the other source must be from august 2020. It's a shame that the player lowers his head a bit on my source.

For me , other than that , my source is clearly superior to the other source. It is a pity that the cuts out faces are not in 500 X 500 pixels , there the difference is obvious. You tried to zoom in on both?

The other source is already in 300dpi. My source is therefore greater if i pass it in 300dpi. Afterwards , you put on the cut out face in megapack you want.

Not all players will always choose the one in the megapack.

I'm affraid that's not an improvement.By his head position you don't even know who is on image.

Personally i recognize the player very well but each has his own.

Editing brightness doesn't effect image sharpness at all.

OK , thanks you for your response.

If you want to tag me, you don't need to use the square brackets any more. Just type @ mons (without the space) and click on the username you want to tag.

 

There was no need to increase the sharpness for this image in my opinion. I can understand brightening it, but sharpening it wasn't necessary because it was a good source. Keep your cutting simple and don't over-complicate it by fixing things which don't need fixing 😉

Thanks you , but i prefer the third one than the first , i think it's more natural , it will be useful for my next cut out faces. After it's just my personal opinion.

And i have the impression that lowering the brightness makes the image more blurry , no ?

Please , reject the second cut out face which is failed , no need to use the clone stamp on this player.

I try to find the right settings to avoid you correcting afterwards.

For the first cut out face , i did not touch anything , i only cut it. For the third , i only lowered the brightness and increased the sharpness. Now , when i have a cut out face that shines a little too much i will lower the brightness a little and change the sharpness or color a little so that the eyes remain visible.

It's up to the requester to ensure the image requested is of the right person, not of the community to check for him. Using Google reverse image search seems to indicate the image is of the former Cameroon captain Rigobert Song, so I'm rejecting it.

 

 

 

Why didn't you cut weeniehutjr's superior source without needing to go through all that? :S

I am looking well instead of yayazo and i did not know for Google reverse image search. I tough weeniehutjr or side spitting pass were only increasing the aspect ratio passing it in 300dpi what i can do myself quickly. After if it is really another source of origin , that changes everything to the quality.

And i don't know how to remove the traces of green or red on the cut out face , apart from clone stamper. Is there an easier or faster way ?

Sorry for the poor cut out face , i took the source of yayazo on google and i enlarged it of 170dpi to 300dpi , we can maybe have better with the second source.

I think the other source is a bit blurry and won't necessarily produce an improvement to the perfectly good cut you've done already.

Weird , it's a video 1080P yet.

@mons Hello The quality isn't good ?

 

I redid a cut out face to Boulay Dia , i let you cut the other source , if you wish it of course , which i think will give a better cut out face.

It is two recent sources in video 1080P.
