Help with layering

Recommended Posts

Is there anyone in the Vegas area using the scalp program that can show me in person how to do the layering. I try to find so videos but no luck and I'm having a hard time doing this by my self. Please let me know thanks.

I know nothing about scalp but can tell you that creating layered files (from other images) for multi-colored vinyl work begins in raster form.

 

Photoshop or Corel or Gimp, heck, even Paint Shop Pro is your friend there. It's almost always easier to break down the 

image into seperate, clearly defined layers at this level. Skill in Pixel based graphics software pays big here.

 

From there, using the auto-trace functions in most software can be very satisfactory.

Even manual trace over existing artwork is greatly simplified with proper image prep..
