step 5 of 12
Here are the steps in creating bird shape from bubble shape. Liquify warp, smudge tool, eraser tool and brushes are used. Dodge and burn tools will finish off highlights and shadows.
step 6 of 12
Chopped section of one 'bubble-like' shape is colorchanged, and underneath, the leaf-like pieces hanging down are taken out and duplicated to add for ornament features to hang on tree.
step 7 of 12
Chopped 'bubble' is now duplicated into many more, reduced in scale, and rotated to be added to trunk of tree (from one of source photos), then texturized w craquelure tool. Then small section of trim made from hanging leaf shapes are added as draped design.
step 8 of 12
'Ornaments' are created from the tree top scaled down and then shaped with distort, scale and perspective tools. They will be colorchanged to varying colors.
step 9 of 12
Here clouds and nebulae have been added. Cloud layer is on top and reduced to allow nebulae to show through. Color changes have been made to nebulae to blend well with clouds. Now the island area is being added under the tree. Reflection of tree is also being added by flipping vertically a duplication of the tree.
step 10 of 12
A planet-like shape is formed from one of bubble-like shapes of source. One will be in sky, and duplicates will become spheres for on the tree.
step 11 of 12
Birds have been added with a few in different colors on the tree. Ducks have been created from reflection bubble shapes and also
shapes have been used as stones in the water. Some light airbrush sprays on some mist around the island.
