To the users of Photoshop software to explain the detailed analysis of the synthetic fantasy Skull Island scene later in the course of processing.
Step 1, create a background
Once you've changed into the sky, create a new gradient layer, create the underwater area with Duotone Blue, as shown in the following figure. Use a layer mask to hide the top of the gradient.
Place the skull on the island and on the underwater gradient, and then use the layer mask to remove the image above, as shown in the following figure. Make sure the skull is as wide and more authentic as the appearance of the island.
To make the bone look like a rocky island, put the rock texture image on the top of the skull as a clipping mask and change its blending mode. If it is too bright, or does not have the correct hue. Use hue/saturation, levels, etc. to make the necessary adjustments.
The use of the Sky picture Cloud looks good, but I want to strengthen the intensity of the sun to make its effect strong. Create a new layer and change the blending mode, first with dark orange to make the brush gradually smaller soft brush point several points, increase the brightness of the color and then draw a bright spot, as shown in the following figure.
Use a soft brush to create some light on top of the tree.
Give your underwater area a little more authenticity and depth, adding some underwater rock pictures. Mixed Mode soft light.
Increase the number of fish and other marine animals to make life more.
