I should say a dog portrait. I have 3 dogs and 3 pics of each dogs face i would like to airbrush the 3 together. How can i do this?

I tired to use the clone tool and put all the dogs togeather it works but i'm wondering if there is a better way? When using the clone brush i don't know what to do with the background.

I'm using PS CS2.

btw the 3 dogs would never sit still to get a pic of them all together.

well.. ive only had ps for 2 weeks.. but u might want to try blending them together... resizing the pictures, creating separate layers for them and blending them changing the opacity %... i dunno much but thats how sometimes i blend pictures together..

hope this helps.. :)

Place each dog on its own layer. if one of the layers has the background you want to use place it at the bottom. Then select / delete or erase or mask out everything but the dog on your 2nd and 3rd layers. resize each layer until the dogs are the right sizes
its a start.
Good luck,

Try the extract tool under filter. It's a good way to separate the dogs from their respective backgrounds.
