First i used soft brushes to free the turtle, then a marquee to finish off.
After that i brought in two source images, a moon and clouds.
I cut out a piece from the cloud marquee, enlargened it and softened it up. Then i added detail with other brushes, mostly experimental and random.
I adjusted brightness and contrast and placed the moon in the corner.
I got picture of a tree outside my house, then i painted over it with one color. After that i used Burn and Sponge to add a little 3d, then i used Dodge to add the odd 3d lighting, which i think works with the odd scene.
Finally i added the roots, burned and sponged them as well, used a dark gradient background, added a light, painted an eye on the turtle and added a final light. (5 years and 3460 days ago)
, I might have made the borders from cloud 9 from actual clouds instead of smudge them yourself, so that it will look more fluffy. Good luck!
. Good luck!
good luck
that tree on its back could have used a bit of more realism...the idea I like
Howdie stranger!
