The balcony photo I used in this tutorial has been removed from the file hosting service. Therefore, take a look at my screenshots and do similar operations.
Open the balcony photo in Photoshop. With the Pen Tool (P) in Paths mode, draw a path along the railing and grab the top of the image. As a result, the outline should be drawn around the balcony background. Right-click on the path and select Make Selection (or use the shortcut Ctrl + Enter). After that press Delete to remove the background.
Go to Image\u003e Canvas size and resize the canvas to 2000x1500 pixels. Open the background image provided at the beginning of the tutorial in Photoshop and with the Move Tool (V) drag it into the first document. Place this layer under the balcony layer, keeping the original size.
Step 2
Open the girl's photo in Photoshop and use the Pen Tool (P) to extract it from the background. You can also use the channel selection method or the Magic Wand Tool (W). Paste the girl into the main document above the balcony layer. Use the Free Transform Tool (Ctrl + T) to resize the girl layer to 43% (this can be specified in the tool parameters at the top of the program).
Step 3
Before continuing, let's color correct the balcony and sky. Color corrections are needed so that all colors match the color of the sky. It is necessary to increase the amount of blue color of the balcony. I always recommend using adjustment layers as they don't harm the base layer.
Above the balcony layer, create a Hue / Saturation adjustment layer (Layer? New Adjustment Layer? Hue / Saturation) and increase the Saturation value to +25. Then create a Levels adjustment layer (Layer? New Adjustment Layer? Levels) and enter a value for the left slider of 176. Finally, create a Color Balance adjustment layer (Layer? New Adjustment Layer? Color Balance) and adjust as shown in the screenshot below.
To enhance the edges of the brick fence, make a copy of the balcony layer (Control-J) and go to Filter? Stylize? Glowing Edges. Set the Blending Mode of the balcony copy to Screen, and lower the Opacity to 50%.
Step 4
The girl also needs to do some color and light adjustments. All this needs to be done using adjustment layers. Make two copies of the girl's layer, right-click on them (in turn) and select Create Clipping Mask. One copy is for sharpening and the other for softening the skin.
Apply the Unsharp Mask filter (Filter? Sharpen? Unsharp Mask) to one of the copies of the girl's layer: Radius - 0.3 pixels, Amount - 215%, Threshold - 3 levels. For the second copy apply the Surface Blur filter (Filter? Blur? Surface Blur) with a Radius value of 2 pixels. Then apply a layer mask to the second copy, which will hide everything. To do this go to the Layer? Layer Mask? Hide All. Select the Brush Tool (B) with soft edges and white color to paint only the girl's skin.
Above the layers with the girls, you need to create several adjustment layers, and apply a Clipping Mask to each one (Ctrl + Alt + G). Create the following adjustment layers (by clicking on the black and white circle icon at the bottom of the layers palette, you will see a list of adjustment layers):
- Levels
- Photo Filter
- Color balance
Adjustment layer settings are shown below:
Step 5
Extract the crow, owl and rose into the main document. Use a Color Balance adjustment layer to change their colors to suit our painting.
Step 6
The main element of all photo manipulations is shadows. The right shadows can make an ordinary painting look very effective. There are several ways to create shadows.
In our case, we will create a soft shadow, since it does not have a specific light source, and there are no other shadows in the picture that would tell us the direction of the light. Select the Brush Tool (B) with soft edges and low opacity. Draw shadow under the girl, owl and rose.
You can see the detailed drawing process in this video.
Step 7
It's time to apply the dodge and burn tools to highlight every detail of the objects. Create a new layer (Ctrl + Shift + N) on top of all layers and go to Edit\u003e Fill and choose 50% Gray. Set the Blending Mode of the layer to Overlay.
Draw the light and dark areas with the Dodge Tool (O) and Burn Tool (O). Use a low Exposure value for both tools (10%).
This is how the layer should look with the Blending Mode set to Normal.
And this is the result before and after working with the lighten and darken tools.
Step 8
Combine all layers into one separate layer (Ctrl + Shift + Alt + E) and name it “Final”. Right-click on it in the layers palette and select Convert to Smart Object. Now all the filters that we apply to this layer will not damage the pixels of the layer itself. Make this layer (Ctrl + J) and name it “Final Adjustments”. Set the Opacity of this layer to 70%.
Step 9
Select the “Final” layer and go to the Image? Adjustments? Shadows / Highlights. Enter the values \u200b\u200bshown below.
Then go to the Filter? Render? Lighting Effects and adjust as shown below.
Since we converted the layer to a smart object, it is possible to change the filter settings at any time.
Step 10
Select the “Final Adjustments” layer and go to the Image? Adjustments? Variations: Select More Cyan and press OK.
While on the same layer, go to the Filter? Distort? Diffuse Glow. Use these settings:
Step 11
Finally, create a Gradient Map adjustment layer (Layer? New Adjustment Layer? Gradient Map): adjust the colors of the gradient as shown below. The Blending Mode of this layer is Overlay and Opacity is 15%.
Conclusion
When doing this kind of photo manipulation, I advise you to do a few things:
- Use the Dodge Tool (O) and the Burn Tool (O) to soften the skin and improve the highlights and shadows on body parts. Shadows are very important, don't forget about them.
- Use techniques that do not harm the main pixels of the image (adjustment layers, smart objects, etc.).
- Use the Lighting Effects filter. It improves the picture by 99% in most cases.
- Don't be lazy to organize your layers palette. Group the layers and name them meaningfully. With a large number of layers, it will be easier for you to figure out where and what is.

Welcome to a new tutorial on how to make a fantasy wallpaper. This is another tutorial that will demonstrate the heavy use of light and fire effects to achieve the final result.
Resources for work:
Step 1 - background
Let's start with a simple texture of the damaged walls. Use the texture size (3000x200) as the canvas size for this artwork. Move the Hue / Saturation adjustment layer to reduce the Saturation to -15.
Step 2-Backlight
The main lighting of the background is achieved using the Lighting Effects filters. Create a new layer above the background, fill it with white and turn it into a smart object, so you can change the filter if you like. The use of smart objects is optional.
The settings used for the filters are shown in the figure below, using two spotlights. You can also create a layer, fill it with black and use a layer mask, and use a large soft brush to hide where you want it to be light in order to achieve the same effect.
Step 3
Extract the woman from the background and add her above all other layers.
Step 4
Go ahead and add the dragon, now you have all the elements in the image and organize them on the canvas. I used the lair9 image from the dragon pack and expanded it so that it faces the woman's face.
Step 5 - shadows
Let's add some depth by shading the woman and the dragon. I will only show you how I made the dragon shadow and you can apply the same technique to make the shadow for the woman.
Duplicate the dragon layer and apply a layer mask, do this by right clicking on the mask and choosing Apply layer mask. With the duplicated layer selected, go to Image\u003e Adjustments\u003e Hue / Saturation and reduce the Lightness to -100 to create a black version of the dragon. Now move this layer below the dragon layer and move it down and slightly to the left. Now apply Gaussian Blur and lower the opacity to your liking.
Step 6
After you made the shadows for the dragon and the woman, use a soft brush with an Opacity and Flow of about 24% to paint soft shadows under the dragon's body, especially in the upper part under the feet.
Step 7 - lighting effects
Now let's tackle the lighting effects. Let's do some yellows on the left side, where the dragon and cool blues on the right side. We start from the side of the dragon. Create a new layer above the main light layer that we had in step 2.
use a dark orange color and use the Color Dodge blending mode. Reduce the opacity until you like the result. Make sure to use a soft brush.
Step 8
Use sparks 1 of the suggested resources and place them behind the dragon. Use parts of it and try to adjust them to follow the dragon's body. I only used parts of the image and also used layer masks. Just duplicate it a couple of times and rotate it around. Use the Screen blending mode to hide the black background of the image. See the image below.
Use sparkles 2 and add more sparkles above the dragon using the same Screen Blending Mode.
Step 9 - dragon layer styles
Instead of using adjustment layers to make adjustments to the dragon, use layer styles because it's easier. Create lighting effects and color changes using layer styles as shown in the image below.
Step 10 - Woman, adjustments
Let's make some minor changes to the woman layer. Use a Gradient Map adjustment layer as a Clipping Mask to add more yellow in certain areas. use Color Blending Mode and set its Opacity to 30%.
Use this image in the image for spark 2 to add fire to the sword. They are all made as clipping masks. Take a look at the layer structure in the image below.
Step 11 - Woman, blue light
To add some blue light to the woman's tedo use a soft brush and paint on the clipping layer mask. Create a new clipping layer for the woman and set its blending mode to Color Dodge. Next, use a medium, soft blue brush.
You can also try using a 0 degree Inner Shadow and using a crisp cyan / blue in combination with Color Dodge.
Step 12 - final adjustments
After lightening and darkening, especially the dragon, add adjustment layers to get the final color effects. Let's start using the default Gradient Map spectrum set to 15% Soft Light this time not as a Clipping Mask, so it should affect the entire canvas. Next, use the smoke image to add some smoke on both sides of the image.
Use Hue / Saturation to Color the smoke and make it a suitable color: left is yellow and right is blue, white smoke also looks good.
Step 13 - coloring
To enhance the two-tone effect, create a new layer and set its Blending Mode to Color Dodge and paint with a large soft brush to create the color effects you see in the image below.
When using the Color Dodge Mode blend, use dark tones, otherwise the lighting effects will come out too bright. Trial and error until you find the correct brightness value. I used 35% Opacity because I didn't want too saturated colors.
Step 14
A final layer of Levels adjustment to increase the highlights, and make the fire on the dragon stand out more.
Final result
In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a fantasy city in the style of Minas Tirith from The Lord of the Rings.
Before starting, I advise you to watch the video with this lesson.
Source codes
Note: If the photos are no longer available, you will have to find a suitable replacement.
Note: the tutorial does not provide detailed explanations of all actions and commands, so it is not recommended for beginners.
Part 1: Preparing materials
Step 1
Let's open one of the photos and try to neatly cut out the city. Let's start with the sky.
Step 2
We activate Magic wand tool (Magic wand) (W).
Step 3
Click on the sky with a stick until you select it completely.
To make the selection neat, use the following options for the tool.
Step 4
Now open the window Refine Edge (Enhanced Edges) to customize the selection.
Adjust the parameter Edge Detection (Face detection) depending on the image you are using. When finished with the selection settings, press the Delete key to delete the sky.
Step 5
Now we take Rectangular Marquee Tool (Rectangular Selection) (M) and select the area you want to keep.
Step 6
We pass Image - Crop (Image - Crop) to crop the image.
Step 7
Step 8
The previous step needs to be applied to all the images that we will be cutting. We open the next photo.
Step 9
Select the sky.
Step 10
Be especially careful in difficult places like these trees. In such situations, zoom (Ctrl ++) can make the job easier.
Step 11
When finished, we get this result.
Step 12
Remember to use Refine Edge (Enhanced Edges).
Step 13
We repeat the previous process for the rest of the photos. Save them as PNG and move on to the next step.
Part 2: Getting Started Construction
Step 1
Now the real work begins. To begin with, open the source with the fortress of Mont Saint-Michel, which we will use as the basis for our city. The image is large enough so we'll be working directly on it. If you have a weak computer, try reducing the photo size a little.
Step 2
We use Polygonal Lasso Tool (Rectangular lasso) (L) to select one of the towers.
Step 3
Copy it and move it to another location to add another tower. You can create more copies if you want.
Step 4
We activate Rectangular Marquee Tool (Rectangular selection) (M).
Step 5
Now we need to get rid of everything that looks modern: metal loess, tourists, shop signs, etc. To do this, you can use Spot Healing Brush Tool (Spot Healing Brush) (J) or Clone stamp tool (Stamp) (S).
This is how a well-processed photo should look like.
Below you can see which items have been removed. Don't worry about the cars for now, we'll get rid of them later.
Step 6
Through Polygonal Lasso Tool (Rectangular lasso) select the main tower of the castle. Copy it and paste it on a new layer. We'll need it later.
Step 7
We open the image with the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral.
Step 8
Insert the dome onto the working paper. Do not forget that each new architectural detail must be on a separate layer. This will greatly facilitate the work.
Step 9
To adjust the contrast, go to Image - Adjustments - Levels (Image - Correction - Levels). Adjust the entry and exit sliders until the contrast of the dome matches the contrast of the fortress.
Step 10
Now we need to close the hole below the dome. To do this, duplicate it (Ctrl + J).
Step 11
Move the duplicate below to close the hole.
Step 12
Now we need to crop the top of the dome to make it less recognizable. Select it and go Layer - New - Layer via Cut (Layer - New - Cut to New Layer) (Shift + Ctrl + J).
We will leave the upper part with the cross, and delete the lower one, while reducing the height of the top of the dome.
Step 13
Open the next image with a dome.
Step 14
Copy and paste it onto the working document, then adjust the size (Ctrl + T).
Step 15
Adjust the levels to adjust the contrast of the dome.
Step 16
Now we cut out the roof to connect the two domes with it.
Step 17
To add more detail, copy the small spiers.
Step 18
Create two copies of the paired spiers and flip one of them horizontally Image - Transform - Flip Horizontal (Image - Transform - Flip Horizontally) to create a solid section of four spiers.
Step 19
Place it on the edge of the fortress as shown below.
Step 20
You can add more spiers. The less the strength is similar to the original, the better.
Step 21
Duplicate the piece of the roof railing and use it to add new details.
Step 22
Open the tower image and transfer it to the working document.
Step 23
Select three windows.
Step 24
With these arches we will add new details. Copy them and transfer them to the main building, as shown below.
Step 25
Reduce the size of the arches a bit and duplicate them.
Step 26
Select the bottom of the arches and duplicate it several times. Place the copies over the entire height of the wall.
Step 27
Use this technique to add more arches to other walls.
Step 28
We will now add large walls. Select an empty piece of the wall on one of the buildings.
Step 29
Duplicate the wall several times.
Step 30
To make the result look more realistic, we will add another wall.
Step 31
Place the copied wall in the right place and transform it. Through eraser (E) you can erase excess areas.
We now have some great walls.
Step 32
Opening the image with the London towers.
Step 33
Paste one tower onto the working paper and reduce its size. To maintain proportions, pay attention to the size of the bricks and windows.
Step 34
Adjust the contrast of the tower.
Step 35
To change the appearance of the tower, we will crop it a little and insert new details. Experiment with duplicating individual tower elements, their size and slope.
Step 36
Having finished with the tower, we can start creating a bridge to connect it to the main architecture of our city. We open a snapshot of a beautiful Belgian castle.
Step 37
Zooming in on the picture, we can see a wonderful base for our bridge. Select it and copy it to the working document.
Step 38
Duplicate this area and bridge the copies one by one.
Step 39
Select, copy and paste the appropriate piece of the wall to create the support and finish the "construction" of the bridge. If necessary, duplicate the columns so that they reach ground level.
Step 40
Select the spire of the original tower, which we copied at the beginning of the tutorial.
Step 41
Move the spire to the new tower. Now you don't recognize her at all.
Step 42
Open the next castle image and select the right tower.
Step 43
Place it on the working paper and adjust the size.
Step 44
Duplicate the tower with the bridge, move it to the right side of the city and flip it horizontally.
Step 45
Cut off the top of the tower.
Step 46
Use a copy of the group of four spiers to decorate the tower.
Step 47
Duplicate the round tower and place it next to the upper dome.
Step 48
By duplicating the tower several times, we can make it much taller.
Step 49
Copy the right half of the tower and flip it horizontally.
Step 50
We make the tower even higher. Also add a copy of the spire, which we copied at the beginning of the tutorial, so that the tower looks like a huge needle. Also, don't forget to adjust the contrast.
Step 51
Use the previously created bridge to connect the tower to the dome.
Step 52
In this work, we used architecture from different periods of history. To make these differences less noticeable, we will copy small details from some buildings and transfer them to others. Select one of the tower windows next to the dome.
Step 53
Add the copied windows to the dome.
Step 54
At this stage, the city already looks good, it remains to finalize the outer walls. Select a large piece of the wall, flip it horizontally and place it on the left side of the city.
Step 55
To close the gap between the walls, select and copy another area of \u200b\u200bthe wall. Mask the seams if necessary.
I hope that you have each element on a separate layer. Select them all and group them (Ctrl + G). Then we duplicate the group to back up all the items. We'll need them later.
Part 3: Background and Lighting
Step 1
Now we can add a suitable background to our illustration. Open the sky photo and place it behind the created city.
Step 2
The sky doesn't cover the entire background, so select the left side and stretch it along the entire length of the document.
Step 3
Open the desert image and place it in front of the city.
Step 4
Now we will use a mask to edit the desert layer. Add a mask and activate Brush Tool (Brush) (B). Use black to hide the areas and white to make them visible again.
Use a mask to hide all the vehicles and other unnecessary elements.
Step 5
The scene must be properly lit for the illustration to look realistic. The light source is located outside the city, so we need to edit all the buildings so that the distant ones are better lit than those that are closer to the viewer.
I think many of you may have seen the work on the subject of fantasy eyes on resources like DeviantArt, Behance, etc. and asked ourselves how it was done. Today we will learn the basics of how you can create such an effect in Photoshop.
Final Result Preview:
We will need a pair of eyes for this tutorial. I found beautiful eyes from Maria Gao.
Open in photoshop the image of the girl's eyes from the lesson materials.
The first thing we will start with is to make eyes burning from the inside. Using the Oval Region tool (Elliptical Marquee Tool) (M) make a selection of the iris of the girl's eyes. Next go to Selection\u003e Modification\u003e Feather (Select\u003e Modify\u003e Feather) with a radius of about 20 pixels.
Then press the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl + C) (copy) and (Ctrl + V) (insert)... You will get a new layer with only the selected area. Name this layer "Eye Glow" and set the blending mode for this layer to Screen (Screen)... Then duplicate the Eyes Glow layer 3 times and you get something like this:
Add a Levels adjustment layer (Levels Adjustment) with values \u200b\u200b20, 0.84, 255.
Create a new layer (Ctrl + Shift + N) and name it "Complexion". Set the foreground color to # 45ADCA. Using a Soft Round Brush (Brush) (B) size 200px, paint over the face under both eyes. Set the Blending Mode for this layer to Soft Light (Soft Light).
Create a new layer (Ctrl + Shift + N) and name it "Glitter". Using the Brush tool (Brush) (B) with size 3px and color #ffffff, place lots of dots around the girl's eyes. Next, right-click on the "Glitter" layer and go to layer styles, select Outer Glow (Outer Glow) with default settings.
Repeat step 7 for the lashes.
Next, we need the Adobe Illustrator program which is included in the standard Photoshop package. Or download a PSD file with a set of swirl layers from the lesson materials.
Load the curl set into the program. And randomly place the patterns around the model's eyes, using each pattern on a separate layer. (Ctrl + Shift + N).
Merge all the pattern layers into one. Next add a Color / Saturation Adjustment Layer. (Hue / Saturation) as a clipping mask, left-click between the adjustment and adjustment layers while holding down the key (Alt)... Make a value for Brightness (Lightness) by -100. This will make the image black and white. Set the Blending Mode for this layer to Soft Light (Soft Light)... Next go to Filter\u003e Blur\u003e Gaussian Blur (Filter\u003e Blur\u003e Gaussian Blur)... Set the radius to 2 pixels.
Create an adjustment layer Layer\u003e New Adjustment Layer\u003e Exposure (Layer\u003e New Adjustment Layer\u003e Exposure) and enter the settings from the screenshot.
The creation of fantasy artwork requires a rich imagination and professional knowledge of the software that is used to create such amazing paintings.
Almost anything is possible; be it an unusual fairy, an old fantasy space city or a dragon-protected chest of jewels. All of these tutorials are helpful and will surely give you the opportunity to improve your Photoshop skills.
