>>2102343Selected background with wand on very low tolerance. Then smoothed selection boundary and shrank it by several pixels. That produced a black border and eliminated most of the places where interior black lines had been included in the selection.
Finally, smoothed selection again to "round off" some of the jaggies. Extremely high resolution of the original give me room to work in.
Essentially, reverse of procedure I use in most renders. Selection tools ignore narrow "crevices", such as places where locks of hair overlap.
>>2102074 is a good example. Selection left little white triangles which had to be painted in manually. I just took advantage of what is normally a shortcoming in the software..
