Top is removed and rotated to lean against the bottom. Straps that go through the buckle are lassoed and moved to the top part. Right end is added to box bottom to give more dimensional look. Later, the top will also be changed on the right end or a dimensional touch. More changes will be made to the latch as well.
step 2 of 9
Two pieces of tooling design are removed from the box, scaled larged, and background started.
step 3 of 9
Background has been completed, gradient layer added, then branch line is added with brush tool.
step 4 of 9
From lowers in tooling design, blossoms are created, color changed, and duplicated, then rotated to form a cluster. One blossom is changed to a side view by rearranging petals.
step 5 of 9
More flower designs are created, lassoing and distorting some of the petals.
step 6 of 9
Flowers are being added here. Yellows and strong oranges will be nearer the bottom of arrangement to anchor it. Additional stems will be added later with brush tool as needed.
step 7 of 9
From another design on box, a white flower is created. It will be toned with blue tones. White flowers will be added since white pearls are being used. They will be placed to take your eye from the pearls up through the arrangement.
step 8 of 9
Pearls are made with hard brush tool with white, then each pearl will be shaped using the burn tool and string drawn between them with small, hard brush tool. Some shadows will fall onto box, again using burn tool.
step 9 of 9
Using filter/render the lighting at top is added. This also darkens area below box at bottom. White flowers are being added here as well. Finally, shadows and highlights are added where needed throughout the image using dodge and burn tools.
