Here’s the 22nd tutorial on AREA 1 which is about creating an urban photo collage!

Here’s what can you achieve by following this tutorial:

Let’s get it started!

Images required for this tutorial:
Ford Taunus 1.3 L
Speed 2
Skyscrapers 1
Isolated palm tree
Barricada

Fonts required for this tutorial:
WC Wunderbach Mix Bta

Brushes required for this tutorial:
Life Brushes

First, create a new project. I’ve used 800px width, 600px height & white background.

Take Skyscrapers 1, remove the clouds with the help of Magic Wand Tool, Quick Selection Tool or Lasso Tool and leave only the buildings.

Next, choose the 300 brush from the brush set above and change the foreground color to black. Create a new layer (which must be above the skyscrapers layer) and do as I did in the screenshot.

After this, take Ford Taunus 1.3 L and cut the white background. Put this layer above all layers.

Take Isolated palm tree and Speed 2, remove their background and put these 2 layers under the car layer.

Next, take Barricada, remove its background and put it behind the 2 layers above (the sign layer & the palm tree layer).

Next, choose the 462 brush from the brush set I gave you . Create a new layer (which must be above the barricada layer) and click somewhere. Now duplicate this layer and go to Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal and put these 2 layers above the barricada “legs”.

Now choose the Type Tool, select WC Wunderbach Mix Bta font and write cityLIFE. Put this layer above all layers.

That’s it! Hope you like the tutorial!
