The Gimp can help you enhance and accentuate parts of a photo even when they are partially obscured by a garment or covering. For example, you may need to bring attention to the physique of a model used in a company ad. Gimp provides the tools you need to simulate the X-ray effect by selecting an area of the model's clothing and adjusting its color intensity, contrast and brightness until it resembles the person's body beneath. You can also simulate the X-ray effect by using Gimp's Opacity, Grayscale and 'Desaturate' tools on objects in separate layers of the same image.
X-Ray Effect on the Same Layer
1.Click the “Scissors Selection Tool” in the tool box.
2.Click around the outline of the area you want to appear as a simulated X-ray. Adjust the fit around the selected area by clicking an individual node, holding down the mouse button and then dragging it closer to the correct spot.
3.Click the first node you made to close the loop around the area and then click anywhere within the outlined area to convert it into a selection.
4.Click the 'Colors' menu and then 'Levels.' The Levels tool helps you control the color intensity of the area you selected.
5.Move the white 'Input Levels' slider to the left until your selected area is lighter, but still retains most of its original texture and some of the underlying colors.
6.Move the black 'Input Levels' slider on the far left slightly to the right until the selected area begins to resemble what might lie beneath.
8.Click the 'Colors' menu and then 'Brightness-Contrast.'
9.Move the 'Contrast' slider to the right or positive direction to sharpen the underlying area.
10.Move the 'Brightness' slider to the left or right to adjust the brightness of the select area.
12.Click the 'Select' menu and then 'None' to deselect the area.
X-Ray Effect on Different Image Layers
1.Open the two images you need to create the X-ray effect. The first image will be the object you want to X-ray. The second image will be the hidden object you want the X-ray to reveal. For example, load the image of a suitcase and a pistol. The X-ray effect will uncover the pistol packed away inside the suitcase.
2.Click the tab for the first image and then click the 'Background' square in the Tool box.
3.Type '000000' in the input box labeled 'HTML Notation' and then click 'OK' to give the image a black-colored background.
4.Click the 'Image' menu, 'Mode' and the 'Grayscale' to convert the image to grayscale.
6.Resize the hidden object so that it will fit within the suitcase, but large enough to be clearly seen. For example, if your suitcase is 400 pixels wide and the pistol is 410 pixels wide, click the 'Image' menu then 'Resize.' Type a width around 300 pixels and then click 'Resize.'
7.Select the object you want to hide within the first image using the Scissors Selection tool.
8.Press 'Crl-I' to invert the selected area from the object to the rest of the current image.
9.Press 'Ctrl-X' the remove the extraneous parts of the image and leave the part you want on a black background.
11.Click the 'Down' arrow on the Opacity spin control located in the dock until the image is faint but still visible. Try an opacity level of 40 to 50.
12.Click the tab for the first image, press 'Ctrl-L' to display the layers panel, click the 'New Layer' button in the Layers dock and then select the new layer. You will add the hidden object to the new layer.
14.Click the 'Image' menu, 'Mode' and the 'Grayscale' to convert your image to grayscale.
15.Press 'Ctrl-A' and then 'Ctrl-Shift-C' to copy the object. Ctrl-Shift-C or Copy Visible forces Gimp to place everything that is visible in the work area into the clipboard. The normal Gimp Copy command should work as well, but sometimes it doesn't pick the current selected area the first time you press 'Ctrl-C.' Copy Visible, however, always works the first time.
16.Click the tab for the first image, press 'Ctrl-V' to paste the selected object into the new layer and then 'Ctrl-H' to anchor it.
17.Click the 'Move' tool and adjust the position of the object within the larger image.
18.Click the 'Color' menu and then 'Invert' to create a image that resembles a photo negative.
19.Click the 'Down' arrow on the Opacity spin control until the opacity is 90 to allow some of the black background to show through.
20.Click 'Image' and 'Flatten' to meld both layers and display your X-ray.
Tip
- This method works best if the photo shows some color contrast between the covering and the object beneath. For example, it would be difficult to contrast a blanched almond-colored garment with a person's skin that has a blond, buff or burly-wood tint.
Warning
- Information in this article applies to Gimp 2.8.6. Procedures may vary with other versions of Gimp.
