Create a Magical and Emotional Forest Scene of a Lost Girl in Photoshop

Create a new layer again. Choose the same setting for brush tool in the previous step and use the same color to paint some more light on the ground, model hair, arms, hands, legs wherever the light reflected by the lamp.

I painted some more light on the lamp. You can see the image below. So, we have achieved a basic light effect but it doesn’t look realistic but looks better. Here comes the advanced lighting techniques and we’ll make it more realistic using nebula 2 images in the next couple of steps.

Step 31

Now, place the Nebula 2 on the main document. Change the blend mode to soft light. Here are the results.

Step 32

As you can see that placing the Nebula 2 image our top right and left corner become darker. This is because our first nebula layer is below the forest layer. To get rid of this select the nebula layer which is below the forest layer and then using soft round basic brush hide the nebula layer part as shown in the image below.

After hiding the nebula layer parts we have more decent results.

Step 33

Back to the Nebula 2 layer, add a layer mask to it. Using soft round basic brush hide the selected part because we don’t want the Nebula 2 to affect especially to lamp and it’s reflected lights.

Step 34

Now, place again Nebula 2 with soft light mode and this time reduce the opacity to 85%. Add a layer mask to and hide all parts except this part (see the image below).

Now, add Hue/Saturation to the Nebula 2 layer. Set the values as shown in the image below. As a Hue/Saturation results, it has given a realistic light glow on the model body. This what we needed and we’ll enhance in the next couple of steps. You can see the results below.

Step 35

Now create a new layer and using a soft round basic brush with color #463213 and with opacity to 30% as well as flow. Paint some light one more time. If you are satisfied with results then you can continue if not you can also paint on duplicated nebula 2 texture to get more results than satisfied your needs.

Step 36

Change the blend mode to Color Dodge. Here are the results.

Step 37

Again create a new layer and paint some more lights as shown in the image below with the same setting in the previous step.
