Removing an object from a photo

connaghm · Jul 3, 2014

Hi there,

I have recently been trying to get good a removing objects from photos. So then my brother came to me with he saved from snapchat

grumpy

and asked me to remove the text. After several hours i have removed the text easily however cannot get rid of the black line whilst still maintaining an authentic look!! Would be helpful if someone could give me some advice and possibly show me the result and all my results using most techniques so far have been blurry.

Thanks!
Please do not post images to which you do not hold rights. Thank-you

Use the selection tools (lasso, quickmask) ro select the stripe and copy the near areas to cover the stripe. Do this in another layer. You can also use the eyedropper tool to copy the color and paint the stripe with a 10% opacity to cover the stripe, to blend with the original layer.

The photo is not yours (nor is it your brothers) it's against forum rules to post photos that are not yours. It's also not yours to edit.

Okay folks, let's remember that if it's not your image, it's NOT YOUR IMAGE! Therefore, it's not yours to post, edit, or to do anything else with. If you don't know whose it is, then you definitely know whose it is not.
