Hey rich, is it possible to use the cookie cutter besides masking? I don't have enough money yet for the "PRO" version yet so..i was just wondering. Thanks for all your help with your videos too! they're great :P

[MortheusMusic]

Hey rich, nice tutorials. Can you please make a tutorial on a effect, where things come out from your mouth? For example I want a small bed coming out from my mouth. Is it possible? Thank you. =)

@richw4 how come you are so nice and smart whilist there is an other so called "dwarf" that uses his look to get mass views while doing the worst lip syncing out there and getting laughed on instead of being an amazing person like you?

Ofcourse i am talking about BeenerKeeKee19952 .

@richw4 after i mask it and feather it and all that instead of a blank spot where my head should be there's a dark sillouette. Please help.
