Eraser, Gradient and Paint Bucket Tools

“

Another set of tools that I very rarely use is the eraser tool group. There's three types of erasers again these are all destructive tools that's why I would very rarely rely on them but I'm just going to show you how they work on the original layer here at the bottom so if I just use the eraser tool it's going to delete it's like a brush but it deletes then you can use the background eraser tool to remove background details so this is going to try to find and identify edges so when I paint around the astronaut for example it tries to find the edges and it does a fairly good job mostly although it starts deleting some parts from it as well again it's a destructive chain so I would never use this tool to be honest and then we also have the magic eraser tool which works a bit similar to the magic one that we will be discussing once we get to the selection tools that can take out certain areas based on their colors so probably a good section for this would be the mountain maybe so yeah…
