TIP: Deleting Adjustments
If you want to delete any adjustment you've made, click on the adjustment's pin to select
that adjustment (the center of the pin turns black), then press the Delete (PC: Backspace)
key on your keyboard.
Step Five:
Okay, now that “glow” around the tops of the planes and tails where we haven't painted
is starting to get on my nerves, so let's deal with that before we tweak our settings
any more. When we're getting near the tops and tails is when you want to turn Auto
Mask back on (shown here). That way, you can paint right up against them, filling in all
those areas, without accidentally painting over the planes. The key to using Auto Mask is
simple—don't let that little + (plus sign) inside the inner circle of your brush stray over
onto the planes, because that's what determines what gets affected (if that + crosses over
onto a tail, it starts painting over the tail). It's okay if the outer circle crosses right over the
planes—just not that + (see how the brush here is extending over onto the tail, but it's not
getting darker? That's Auto Mask at work).
