I am trying to figure out a way to take 2 or 3 picturs of cars and basically take them down to just exterior body lines.

Basicaly take any pic of a car or truck and be left with nothing but a nice clean outline of the car.

Any suggestions?

Everything around the car and inside the car would be transparent or white.

I am attaching a pic of a car I have been using.

If you look at the pic with the mazda car a few replies down in that thread you will see an outline of the car. That's what I am looking for. Anyone?

I think the color range tool and the delete key or the copy onto another layer (CTRL-J) Learn how to use the colour range tool within the selections feature. I think that will solve your probelm. The color range tool is too finakey for me to explain how to use it.
