Background removal needed. Anonymous 2016-09-02 01:27:57 Post No. 183188 [Report]

I grabbed this image of pro wrestler Finn Balor with the WWE Universal title from WWE.com because they never did put the proper image of Finn with the title up on wwe.com/superstars due to him injuring himself and relinquishing the title.

I've been fucking with this thing in Photoshop CS6 for about 2 hours now, trying to remove the background to get it to look as similar in quality as this image from WWE.com:

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it right. I'm hoping someone here is a real background removal wizard and can do wonders with this image as it would be a real neat asset for wrestling video game makers/modders.

Oh you are awesome. Minor detail, but there were some spots that needed transparency:

Other than that, very nice. How the heck did you even manage to get this done so nicely?

Not that anon, but there's a thing called lasso tool. Draw are you want, inverse selection, delete. Rinse and repeat for all the small holes inside the outline that need to be transparent.

Oh I did it with the magic wand tool and some intense zooming and careful pixel selection.

I used magic wand, then a small blur on the edges to round off the sharper pixels. Did it with PS touch on note 2 phone. What other parts need to be transparent hard to tell from pic
