What you'll be creating
We'll start this tutorial by combining a sky and a city image using adjustment layers, masking, and brush. Then we'll add the moon and create a glowing light for it. Later we'll add the walls and blend them together using the same previous techniques. After that, we'll add the model and do some retouch on her. We'll use the bat brushes to increase the dark atmosphere for the image. We'll add several adjustment layers to enhance the final effect. You'll need Photoshop CS3 or newer to follow this tutorial.
