Complex Multi-Layer Image Etching
Budget: $12 – $30 SGD
I have 5 JPEG images that shows a tangle of paper scraps, bits of plastic and strands of string arranged one atop another. I need the file rebuilt in Photoshop so every visible object becomes its own layer, stacked exactly in the order the eye sees—lowest elements at the bottom of the layer stack, topmost items on top. Expect well over ten layers by the time every fragment is isolated.
Background: trace the cast shadows onto their own dedicated layer, then clean and smooth the remaining backdrop so it reads as an even tone once everything else is turned off. The finished document must hold its full high-resolution detail and preserve transparent edges around every cut-out object.
Deliverables:
• A fully layered PSD/PSB with individual objects arranged bottom-to-top
• One separate layer containing only the original shadows
• A retouched, smoothed background layer
When I toggle layers on and off I should see perfect cut-outs with no haloing, jagged edges or loss of pixel detail.
