step-011
step-012

Step 11

Go to File > Place and open the ‘Sky 1’ Stock. Name the layer ‘Sky 1’. Put this layer below the ‘Railway’ layer.

step-013

Step 12

Go to File > Place and open the ‘Sky 2’ stock. Put it above the ‘Sky 1’ layer and name it ‘Sky 2’. Then set it to Hard Light.

step-014
step-015

Step 13

Go to File > Place and open the ‘Moon’ stock. Name the layer ‘Moon’ and place it above the ‘Sky 2’ Layer.

step-016

Step 14

Set the ‘Moon’ layer to Screen.

step-017

Step 15

Let’s work to blend everything together. Add a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer above all layers. Clip it to the ‘Railway’ layer.

TIP: To clip a layer or an adjustment to the layer below simply hold ALT and click on the line between the two layers that you want to “clip.”

When you are done put these settings:

Master: Hue: 0; Saturation -40; Lightness: -19

Yellows: Hue 0; Saturation: -44; Lightness: -2

step-018
step-019

Step 16

Add a Gradient Map like the one showed in the image below. (Above all layers). Then set it to Soft Light with Opacity and Fill at 80%.

step-020
step-021

Step 17

Add another Gradient Map like the one showed below. Then set it to Soft Light with Opacity at 80% and Fill at 90%.

step-022
step-023

Step 18

Let’s keep on working on our background scene. Time to enhance lights and shadows. Create a new layer above all layers and name it ‘Light Railway’. Pick the color #69b987. With a soft brush paint some light on the railway.

step-024

Step 19

Set the layer to Color Dodge with Opacity and Fill at 35%.

step-025

Step 20

Create a new layer and name it ‘General Light’. Pick the color #f2f1b9. Paint some light around with a soft brush.

step-026

Step 31

Set this layer to Hard Light with Opacity and Fill at 50%.

step-027

Step 32

Create a new layer and name it ‘Shadows’. Set it to Multiply with Opacity and Fill at 40%. Pick the color #232211. With a soft brush you have to paint some shadows. Below you can see where I painted (with the layer set to Normal at 100%). And then the result with the layer set to Multiply.

step-028
step-029

Step 33

Since the shadows are too harsh I applied some blur. Go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and set 10px.

step-030

Step 34

We are going to do the same with the lights. Create a new layer and name it ‘Lights’. Set it to Soft Light with Opacity at 30% and Fill at 70%. Pick the color #e3da9b and paint some lights with a soft brush. Below you can see where I painted (with the layer set to Normal at 100%). And then the result with the layer set to Soft Light.

    this sucks, srly why can this guy show what you should do instead of telling, may things that he says to you what to do is like playing a gamewith out telling the rules but only he knows them. the´r is only one layer that can be clipt one not tow. ti have bin really frustrating trying to get throe this tutorial.

    learnt so much, and it is not obvious when you start, I had to discover how to set up personalised gradients and that was great. Sorry for the abuse from Jesse 007, must have a little problem.

    This tutorial sucks. Be more accurate when you speak. Show commands from the keyboard. Plain and simple, speak clearer proper english

      This is an awesome tutorial that is VERY easy to follow. IF, which I very very much doubt create a tutorial yourself! Just because you have barely progressed beyond your Janet & John reading books, don’t expect people to create tutorials to be written at your level of intelligence and reading standard!
