In this tutorial I will show you how to create a mysterious skull island in Photoshop.

We will use a lot of layers and layer masks in order to combine the stock images needed to create this weird skull island in Photoshop.I will show you how to create light effects and how to convert a skull into a rocky underwater island.

I used Photoshop CC but you can achieve the same result with any CS version of Photoshop. For this tutorial we will also use the PixelSquid plugin in order to add realistic 3D objects on our manipulation.
