Rendering in short is the process of extracting a specific object from a picture containing many grouped objects.
This is most often used for photo manipulation and things related to that. But it can also be used for other things
such as a car for a poster or magazine.To start i've chosen a picture with white background [ So you can easily
render it]. Take a look at the picture which we are going to use.

After we are done rendering / cutting the car out , it will look like this:-

Note:- The render shown above is NOT neat and I know it. I've quickly made it for this tutorial.

Lets move with the tutorial.



First open up the image in PS [ OBVIOUS STEP ]

Select the pentool from the toolbox [ or click 'P' ]

Now start making points on the object [ i.e the car ( in this case ) ].
You can do this by clicking on the edges of the object.
Watch The GIF Animation below:-

On edges which are rounded [ such as the tyres ] , make a straight line by adding 2 points.
Then click on the middle of the line created. Press ctrl and click on the middle points and bring it down.
To understand this better , watch the GIF Animation below :-

Now after you've made the path around the object, right click ->Make Selection.
Now open up a new document.Cut the selection and paste it on the new document.
And then delete the background layer and save it as anyname.png.

Thanks for reading my tutorial.

You've put a lot of effort into this. But you see Photoshop already has plenty of selection tools, including the trusty Magnetic lasso, Magic wand, and the Quick selection tool.
And you didn't use any of those and used a vector tool to extract the object from a raster?

Thank You for understanding.
By Using the pen tool your selection will be more precise and intentional which will let your render look professional.I would recommend different selection tools for different type of pictures.
The tools you have mentioned works well with soft edges but when
you work with pen tool you'll understand that it will work both on
soft-edge and rough-edge. The pen tool is might be a bit hard to
master but once you've mastered it , its really flexible for making selections on any scenarios.

If you're calling the polygonal edges on the car selection to be precise then you are still in the learning stage my friend, regardless of your disclaimer that you did in a hurry.
You cannot precisely select with a pen tool, at least not as fast which is the whole point of using Photoshop in the first place.
You have to use different tools for different raster images. In this image you posted best would be to blend.
