The lightsaber would be more difficult, but to cut people out of pictures I use the polygonal lasso tool, usually with a feather on it.

What's the picture? Changing the color of a lightsaber is very easy. Duplicate the the layer that has the lightsaber, apply a mask so you only see the lightsaber, make the lightsaber black and white by going to hue/saturation by pressing ctrl+u and removing all of the saturation, go to color balance by pressing, ctrl+b, and just apply the midtones of the color you want the new lightsaber to be. Change that new layer's blending mode to hue. Hopefully you understand Photoshop enough to know what I was talking about. If not, just post the picture with the lightsaber you want to change color in the "can u add/mod a saber to this pic" thread and me or one of us will do it very quickly.  |
