An eraser has always been part of the artist’s toolbox; digital art is no exception. Choosing the Eraser tool (E) with a soft-edged, round brush and lowering the Opacity in the Options Bar is similar to using a kneaded eraser to soften hard edges and enhance blends and highlights. Additional eraser tip: In Photoshop, any brush can become an eraser by choosing Clear from the Mode drop-down menu in the Options Bar.

You really want to be able to get back to that moment. To do so, make sure that you turn on the History Log checkbox in the General Preferences (Photoshop>Preferences>General [PC: Edit>Preferences>General]). You can save the information as metadata, as a separate text file, or both!
