Make your artwork look like they're from an alternate universe. These Cyberpunk presets work with Photoshop (via the Camera Raw filter) and Lightroom. Download all 788 presets for 90% off.
Then change the blending mode of this layer to Soft Light and reduce the opacity to 20%.
And this is our final result, and the end of our image:

Remember to select all the adjustments we just added (holding Shift) and create a new group with them. Name this group “Final Adjustments” and we’re done!

Thanks a lot, I learn a lot form this tutorrials
Wow. Thank you for sharing this experience with us...........and for the challenge.
Thanks for this great tutorial. One of the best I found so far. But I do have a question, since one step doesn't work out like it should. I have finished the cave and put the layers in a Group Folder as the tutorial says. The next step would be the cave lighting layer. But when I try to create it, Photoshop won't let me add a clipping mask. For some reason it won't do that above a group folder. To help myself I merged all cave layers into one, that way it works, but of course I can't change any details now, which is a bit annoying. I would be glad if you or someone else could tell me what I've been doing wrong. I use Photoshop CS4.

Great tutorial. I loved it, and my end result turned out really well. I learned a tonne about layer masks so thank you :D
This worked ! Could do it as a beginner. Neat description. Great tutorials.Thank you!
A bit cheating with the cube but it works. Proper way is to create a cube with isometric transforms.

Wish you and your family have wonderful weekend.
Awesome tutorial...keep them coming..Thanks
Terrific tutorials, as ALWAYS!
And trust me, a lot of users see your tutorials, even if they don't leave feedback.
Thanks, as always!
I always learn something from the great Photoshop Tutorials here.
On the part where you pick random parts from the island, you should have placed the layer inside the main PSD & use layer masks. Duplicate layer, paint in layer mask, repeat.
Better vextor mask to cut out than layer mask to fading edge
One of the best tutorials- very detailed. Thanks a lot.
Awesome work!!!!
