Mini Earth Tutorial


photoshop photomanipulation


Ever wanted to create your own fantasy mini earth but don't know how? Lucky for you, here is a tutorial on how to create your very own mini earth using Photoshop.



STEP 1: Add a picture of stars as your background. You can also choose any image with dark colours.

 STEP 2: Using the 'gradient tool', add the rainbow effect on a separate layer. Then, choose 'colour' as the blending mode of this layer.



STEP 3: Find an image of water, then use the 'marque tool' to crop out a sphere.



STEP 4: Darken the sides of the sphere using the 'burn tool'.



STEP 5: Now, add an image of sand or something with the texture of solid land and crop it to the same size as the sphere.



STEP 6: Using the 'lasso tool', cut out pieces of the sand sphere and those will be the lands of your mini earth. :D

STEP 7: Do the same using an image of grass.



STEP 8: Now select the layer of your grass and apply a stroke of 10 pixels on a new layer. Then erase the part that you had stroked on the layer of grass. This is to create an effect of depth between your grass and land.



STEP 9: Now add a rainbow to your earth. You can either marque a rectangle and apply the rainbow gradient the warp it to the shape of an arc, or you can simply find a picture of a rainbow and add.



STEP 10: You are almost completing your very own mini earth. Now add clouds to the rainbow.




STEP 11: Finally, add pieces of image that you desire in order to suit your one of a kind earth. In this case, i added a lion, a mountain and also a tree.
