i seperated my homefront-guy (see my avatar) from it's background by using the freeform pen tool, make a line around him and then with add anchor point tool making it go just around the line of the guy-background and adjusting it by adding anchorpoints (just click on the line) moving them to the line (ctrl+click on anchor point and move it) and adjusting curves (ctrl+click on line and move it) after that right click on line and 'make selection' and then copy it into a new layer, (the original homefront guy was much more grey-like, i added a few effects so it would be more explosion-near like. and added a new background, made a couple of effects, added a new layer between guy and background with brown collour, added noise and motion blur and set it to 'soft light' and i had it (with a hair brush tool i made those fancy lines on the buildings, also soft light)
