step 1 of 9
Loved the pose, but she isn't exactly wearing a wedding gown
step 2 of 9
Using the brightened fabric, I stitched together a wedding dress using warp and liquify
step 3 of 9
I used a mask on the fabric and punched it full of holes using Assorted brush texture #1. Lace! I warped the lace over the bodice and used Layer>Layer Style>Color Overlay to make it red. Warped the hair to fit.
step 4 of 9
This shows the progression of the dress. I eventually made the sleeves lace, as well, adding skin tone under it. To shade the dress, I used a solid color adjustment layer. A dark blue with reduced opacity does well for shading white.
step 5 of 9
The finished bride. I used a hard smudge on her hair to make it flow.
step 6 of 9
I started out with the dragon leaning over the wall, but changed the pose later. I layered the wings to make the scales, then copied and place them.
step 7 of 9
Liquify helped me make the head.
step 8 of 9
The new pose. I used a chunk of the source (stone arch) to make the claws and spikes. After I placed all the scales, I merged them to make the body, then tweaked it using liquify. A color fill adjustment layer made it look greener.
step 9 of 9
To shade, I used inverted adjustment layers and painted in the shadows and high lights.
