Create a Gigantic Wolf Scene in Photoshop

The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty. In this photoshop tutorial, we will learn how to create a surreal scene. First, we added a background, then place a wolf and blended it with the background. Next, added eyes color and mist/clouds. Also added some texture and finally use the camera raw filter.

Step 1

Now, let’s start by creating a new image file, go to the Menu bar and click File > New, and then input the following values on their respective fields

Preset: Custom
Width: 3080px
Height: 3850px
Resolution: 300px
Color Mode: RGB Color 8 bit

Step 2

Now, place the Background photo Go to File > Place. Then place it to our work canvas. Then position the image with the transform tool (Ctrl / Cmd + T). Hold Alt + Shift and rasterize like the image below. In Photoshop CC only hold Alt to rasterize all sides together.

Step 3

Next, select the background layer, and with the Rectangular Marquee tool select clouds/mist. Then duplicate it (Ctrl/Cmd + J) and fill the empty area.

Create a layer mask and with a soft round brush tool(B) delete the line between layers. Foreground color set to black.

Now, create more lights. Create a new layer…

Then go to Edit > Fill and Contenst: 50% Gray and press Ok.

Now use Brush Tool(B) Soft Round with foreground color white and Brush Opacity set to 10-20%. Then start painting. Take a look at the example in the picture below how much you need to paint, where there is the most white color, draw the most.

Blend mode change to Overlay.

Next, we will open wolf. After you open the image, use the Quick Selection Tool(W) and start selecting. After the selection area has been created, simply copy (Ctrl / Cmd + C) and Paste (Ctrl / Cmd + V) it to our work canvas. Then position the image with the transform tool (Ctrl / Cmd + T).
