How to Create a Compassionate Planet Earth Artwork in Photoshop

Step 24

Open the file “Vines”. As you can see there are multiply vines in the zip file. Extract them somewhere on your computer and choose two you like. Place them as shown below above the tree.

Step 25

Open the image “Owl”. Select the owl and copy/paste in our scene. Place the owl above one of the vines.

Step 26

Open the image “Island”. Place the island as shown below. Add a layer mask and partially hide the underwater portion of the island (paint with a 50% black brush in the layer mask). On a new layer paint some loose lines around island where it enters the water.

Step 27

Open the image “Small Tree”. Select the tree and copy paste in our scene. Put the tree above the island.

Step 28

Open the image “Deer”. Select the deer and copy paste in our scene. Put the deer above the surface of the earth near the tree. On a new layer below the deer layer paint some shadow.

Step 29

Create a new Curves Adjustment Layer and use the settings shown below to increase the contrast. Clip this layer to the  deer layer.

Step 30

Open the image “Girl”. Use the Pen Tool (P) to make selection of the girl and copy paste her in our scene. Place her on the surface of the earth as shown below.

Step 31

Create a new Curves Adjustment Layer and clip it to the girl layer. Use the settings shown below to increase the lightness.

Step 32

Open the image “Boat”. Select the boat and copy paste in our scene. Place the boat near the earth. Add a layer mask and subtly hide the bottom of the boat to make it look as it is submerged in the water.

Step 33

On a new layer draw some white lines around the boat where it enters the water. With the standard chalk brush tool at 100% opacity and 1px width draw a rope connecting the boat to the earth.

Step 34

Open the image “Dolphin”. Select the dolphin and copy paste in our scene. Use a layer mask to partially hide the tail as it enters the water.

Step 35

Create a Curves Adjustment Layer and drag the curve up to lighten. Clip it to the dolphin layer.

Step 36

Create another Curves Adjustment Layer and use the settings shown below to change the color to a nice blue. Clip this layer to the dolphin layer.
