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:

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:

The result should be similar to this:

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:

After clicking the Foreground tool, the Color Picker box would open. Once open, input the following on the # space:

• #: 000000

Now, let’s paint!

The result of that should be similar to this:
