To make textures of a pinata, craquelure (low setting) and pixelate (also very low setting) are both added.

step 5 of 7

Text (levenim MT) is added to front of monkey. This could have been done before textures were added, but I think it's easier to read to do it now. Pattern of 'over and under' is chosen for shape of text and pinkish red for color.

step 6 of 7

Since light source is from back, monkey front is burned as in shadows, and edges toward light dodged slightly to reflect some of the light from the back. From another copy of the source background, the pinata crepe paper 'tail' are lassoed and chopped to be added under monkey. This shows motion in addition to motion blur which is to be added.

step 7 of 7

Motion blur is added here to monkey (side motion very low setting), and a copy of boys arm and bat are lassoed from original source background, added over arm and bat in the background, then motion blur added just to bat and arm (also very low setting)
