First, you ll make a selection of the area where you want the tie. Then, you ll move the marquee onto the fabric, copy it, and deposit it on the mannequin to create a tie:

1. Choose the Lasso tool. In the Options bar, set the feather radius to px.

2. On Fred s shirt, draw the shape of the tie, as shown in Figure H1.15.

3. Place your cursor in the center of the marching ants . Click the mouse and drag it to one of the material swatches.

4. Choose the Move tool. Place the cursor inside the selection outlines and drag the tie back onto the shirt.

5. Deselect and save.

You can enhance the tie, as I have done in Figure H1.16, by painting portions of it with a low-opacity black to produce a shadow effect. See Chapter 12, Using Channels and Quick Mask, to learn about painting.
