What does the Cutout tool make?
Short answer. A new layer from part of a picture.
Where does the pivot go?
Where the part bends, like the neck.
Cut and rotate
| Cutout tool: cut the head |
| Rotate layer above head |
| Pivot at the neck |
Remember
| Cutout makes a new layer |
| Pivot where it bends |
Can a still photo nod? Yes. Three steps. Cut the head into its own layer with the cutout tool. Add a rotate layer above it. Put the pivot at the neck. Remember. Cutout makes a new layer. Pivot where it bends.
