Started creating the background. Filled with purple then used a Radial Gradient in grey and white at 85% opacity.
step 1 of 12
step 2 of 12
Next I used Filter>Render>Cloud Effects on various layers.
step 3 of 12
I masked out the two models and positioned them so that they looked like they were holding hands.
step 4 of 12
I merged the layers then used Lighting Effects to begin creating the club scene.
step 5 of 12
I then painted some more lights on various layers and different opacities. Colors used were white, orange and red.
step 6 of 12
I then placed another layer of the models over the top at 85% opacity so that they were not overdone with the lighting effects.
step 7 of 12
Next I added little stars of varying sizes and colors.
step 8 of 12
added two layers of omni lighting behind the models.
step 9 of 12
Next was to add some Lens Flare.
step 10 of 12
I then added a dark gradient at the base of the image and enhance the overall colors to make the image pop more.
step 11 of 12
Next was to convert it to a sketch. I learned this technique a while back from a random tutorial which I can't remember.
The steps were:
1- Desaturate image.
2- Duplicate layer.
3- Invert layer.
4- Change blending mode to color dodge.
5- Filter>Other>Minimum.
6- Adjust using Levels and Curves.
