*Absinthe - If you don't know what it is, Google is at your service! This is a concept i took from a sketch of my friend Tarun. When the first time i saw this, i told him I'll paint it green..now i got the time and i worked on it.... btw, those who knows my favorite color is green might laugh, but i think this is the best color for this image .wot say?

This is the first step. I have already stolen the concept from Tarun months ago.. this was my basic sketch on paper to begin photoshopping!
Dark green fill and highlights of green with a big low opacity brush...
painted the foreground roughly...no time for detailing..just added a few lightrays to define where the light should be coming from and where the shadows should fall...
Time to start painting the Green flame.... just a few dots of different green shades blended with smudge tool did the trick ...
Painting the Witch...no green involved..just trying to get it the real human skin tone....
Time for detailing.. took a small brush and dark and light shades to paint in the details ,shadows and highlights...
More detailing.....and added a little greenish tint to everything in there...
Well, it's all 2D now.. where's the depth... I almost forgot the 3D -ness of things.... well, what else i can do than adding something like a few pillars to show depth and blur !!!!
Yeah-u think right... just copy-pasted the first pillar and resized ... ! ..added a bit more high lights and shining of green to everywhere i thought necessary...
Done!!!!! I'm satisfied after doing some color correction and sharpen/blur/dodge/burn tools on the final image... nw, it's your turn to comment....
Absinthe is waiting to hear ...
thanks for watching !
*absinthe- Although it is sometimes mistakenly called a liqueur, absinthe is not bottled with added sugar and is, therefore, classified as a liquor or spirit
