Tabby slime cutout

[leingen]

I recorded a short video focusing on a tabby slime and cut every frame to obtain this



Sadly the avatar size limit is 19kb so i had to greatly reduce the quality and frames to be able to add it to my avatar. Still pretty cute :3

Hello leingen! Welcome to the forums. :)

This is really, really cool! May I ask what tools you used to make this?

no problem.

First I recorded gameplay from slime rancher using the tool shadowplay, but you can use any screen recorder. It's important to put the slime or thing that you want to cut out in a background with 1 colour and this coulour has to be as different as you can from the thing you want to cut. For example, i put the tabby slime in the top of the walls that sorround the player home which colour is orange and differs greatly from the grey of the tabby slime.

Then I opened the video with photoshop CC 2015 and automatically it opens it with the video editor window in phososhop which is very simple but enought for this. First I deleted the parts of the video that i wasn't interested and then patiently deleted the background on every frame of the video I had. finally, I exported the result to gif.

It isn't hard, just time consuming. I'm sure there are better tools for this but this ones are the ones I know.
