In this Photoshop tutorial, we will learn how to create a dirty, flooded room with a giant hand saving a fish inside a glass ball. We will learn how to blend images together seamlessly using several stock photos by using several Photoshop tools such as the Transform tool and the Brush tool.

Step 1: Create a New Image File

We will 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:
  • Width: 3000 pixels
  • Height: 3000 pixels
  • Resolution: 300 pixels/inch
  • Color Mode: RGB Color; 8 bit
  • Background Contents: Transparent

Step 2: Create the Wall

In this step, we will be creating the walls within this dark tunnel. To start, let’s open “Wall Texture” by shadowh3. Once open, activate the Move tool (press V on your keyboard) and then drag it to our canvas by left-clicking and moving it to our canvas. Once on the canvas, it should appear like this:

Now, we will have to rename this layer to avoid confusion in later steps. To rename a layer, simply double-click on the words: “layer 1” (which is our layer - “Wall Texture”) to prompt a text box to appear. Once that appears, you may now rename the layer to “wall”. See the sample below:
image007
Next, we will have to transform this “wall” to make it look like a wall; to do that, activate the Transform tool (Ctrl/Cmd + T) while the “wall” layer is selected and then resize it as shown below:
image008
The result should be similar to this:
image009
Next, we will fix the light of the walls, and to do that we would need to paint on it. To start, click on the Layer window and then create a new layer (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + N) and then name this layer to “Darken Wall”. Now, activate the Brush tool (B) and then input the following:
  • Brush size: 1200px
  • Hardness: 0%
  • Opacity: 25%
  • Flow: 100%
  • #: 000000

Note: The “#” means the color of the brush is black, but to make sure that you will be using that brush color follow the steps below:
image011
After clicking the Foreground tool, the Color Picker box would open. Once open, input the following on the # space:
  • #: 000000
image012
Now, let’s paint!

The result of that should be similar to this:
image014
Next, let’s create another layer (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + N) and then name this new layer: “Darken 2”. Now, activate the Brush tool (B) once again and then input the following:
  • Brush size: 1800px
  • Hardness: 0%
  • Opacity: 15%
  • Flow: 100%
  • #: 000000
When you’re done, we can now start painting:
image015
The result of that should be similar to this:
image016

Step 3: Create the Water in the Room

In this step, we will be filling this room with water. To start, let’s open the “Stormy Sea” by darkrose42 stock. Once open, activate the Rectangular Marquee Tool (M) and select the sea from this image.

image018
Now that you’ve created a selection area around the sea, activate the Move tool (V) and drag the sea to our canvas and position this layer above the “Darken 2” layer.

    1. All the stock resource links seem to be working on my end. Where are you seeing the link for the water in the ball?

  1. I'm not sure if you're still posting since this is kind of an old tutor, but you are an awesome artist! Great walkthrough
