In this tutorial digital artist Shelley Bergen will show you the making-of process of one of her images called “Into The Depths”.
Choose your eye stock. Change the stock image to grayscale (ctrl+U) and increase the color depth to 16-bit (image/mode/16-bit).
Using the airbrush tool (mine was set to about 20% opacity) airbrush out the eyebrow. Then using black airbrush out the inside of the eye, being careful around the edges of the eye. With airbrush on black still and 10% opacity, create a shadow going from the inside corner of the eye downwards beneath the eye. Then go over the black airbrushed areas with burn set to around 10% opacity.
