If you now click on this and move it you will see that it is possible to get a perfect curve.
If the curve does’nt quite fit, grab the ‘antenna’ arms and pull/move them until the line fits. It might seem difficult at first but after some practice it becomes quite easy.
My next pictures are exaggerated to show what happens.
Once you’ve got the line to fit snugly to the contour, ( you might have to re-adjust a few )
Click the ‘Load Path as a Selection’ icon (third from the left) in Paths. This will cause the marching ants effect.
Click ‘Select’ (top tool bar) and ‘Inverse’.
Zoom out so that you can see the whole picture. Ctrl –
In Layers select the top Background layer (make it blue)
Edit > Cut. This will cut out the knife from the background.
