First thing first cut out the foot i used the pen tool
step 2 of 23
select a top half of the foot, using a rectangular marquee tool and go to Edit-transform and select perspective, this is how we're gonna widen the young Hulk's foot
step 3 of 23
well lets go further an fatten the toes a bit, remember its hulk foot! just select, using lessor tool, toes individually and fatten them, using free transform!
step 4 of 23
Well now toes are exploding, now we are going to make a shoe
step 5 of 23
Usind a pen tool. make a shape of a shoe
step 6 of 23
Fill the selection with colour and under custom shape tool, there is a shape called Tile 2. pick that up and it'll automatically places itself on a new layer
step 7 of 23
duplicate that tile2 shape and rotate it clockwise, at 60 degrees, and you'll get some diamonds shape, then merge the two layers and duplicate until it covers the whole shoe sole.
step 8 of 23
now load a selection from the shoe sole layer and delete the the unwanted diamond shapes outside the shoe sole. then apply layer stiles, -drop shadow, bevel and emboss, inner shadow and stroke, tweak until something like this happen.
step 9 of 23
play around with bevel and emboss to soften the shoe sole and create a border around, using the same technique
step 10 of 23
make a new layer and with a splat brush just splat and load a selection, then on a shoe sole layer copy and paste with that selection
step 11 of 23
now using kind of a similar brush, erase parts from the shoe sole layer, you should have something like this!
step 12 of 23
now we are going to make fire, you can start by just making a white rectangular slab
step 13 of 23
well that slab we made is filled with a black and white gradient, and with smudge tool start dragging upwards and sideways, imitating the rhythm of fire.
step 14 of 23
duplicate the fire layer once you're happy and resize
step 15 of 23
to turn our fire hot, we need to go to Hue/Saturation, by pressing CTRL and U, and play with colorizing and eventually fire will get hot
step 16 of 23
now we hive the foot the identity, by applying the same process that we colored fire with, and this time we just concentrate on turning the foot green! you can see some other fires, and the splash is simple done by some of these splatter brushes on individual layers and merged.
step 17 of 23
now we let our blanket background show through
step 18 of 23
now we add some depth on the toes and give'em some volume. by using dodge and burn tool!
step 19 of 23
now lets make some back smoke using the same technique we made fire with. on a white shape lets use smudge tool and start making some smoke
step 20 of 23
once you are cool with smoke, apply a blending mode, Difference and magic starts happening, since the smoke needs to be between the blanket and the foot, erase any smoke thats in front of the foot!
step 21 of 23
Bingo smoke is now smoking, and now we gonna make some kind of a crack on the heel to emphasize the the foot is swelling.
step 22 of 23
now with the liquify filter go around the crack and drag a bit just to show that something is gonna be coming out soon!
step 23 of 23
now drop some fire down there! and with dodge and burn tool go around the crack and give the sole some highlights and shadows and well Bingo!!!
