The photos of this draw originate from MiMì jewels advertising page: I was interested by different postures of the same model.
At first, I blocked out the images (its masks have to be saved on alpha channel for an following use), afterwards, I define the dimensions and the position of the figures and I produce the background that, in these circumstances, is remained the original one without logo and widened with copy/paste and clone tool for covering a lager surface as necessary for the final disposition of the composition.(8)
I elaborate the background only with the overlap of an orange level without the part of the surface corresponding to the central image, to avoid undesired color effects in the figures. I cut, with masks, all the images that are interposed among the background and the close up shot to avoid their visibility when some merge mode is applied. The image 10 is gotten adding the 4 with the 11 and the 9 in normal merge mode. The 11 is gotten from 6 with 9 mask cut. The 12 is a copy of 11 which I applied the sketchpad effect in overlay merge mode. The 13 level is a toned down orange/yellow in tonality merge mode.

All these above listed levels lead to 14 that with 7 and some effects, that I don't quote for short, lead to 15 icon. Now I sum the 16, highlight merge mode, the 17 that is the left image with spiralweave blurr, the 18 (a 17 copy with contour effect 'find edges') softlight merge mode to obtain the 19, that, additioned to 20 overlap merge mode and the 21 soft light merge mode, become background (23), that you can see here with central image that however lays on another level.

Create object from background for further changes . Level 24 has screen merge mode, the 25 (a copy of 15) screen merge mode again, the 26 softlight merge mode, the 27 (25 copy) colorburn merge mode, the 25 always normal merge mode (in real work this level is ever the same, that is without changes, and is necessary to see the background changes).

Combine the two mid-shot images, in 29 icon, to a new background and I create object from background again. The 30 icon deeplight merge mode (27 copy with Kraussianblurr effect), combine background and oject again: 31. The addition of 32 softlight merge mode, 33 (spinblurr of the central image) dissolve merge mode, 34 spin blurr again, but with difference merge mode, gives me the 36 icon

Now I add the level 35 texturize merge mode, 38 (32 copy) highlight merge mode, 39 (33 copy) add merge mode to get 40. Afterwards the 41 (34 copy) highlight merge mode and the 42 screen merge mode and 43 screen merge mode, become 44 that will be background and object afterwards.

The 45 multiple merge mode and the 46 texturize merge mode are rapresented in 47, background and object again. Finally 48 divide merge mode, 49 highlight merge mode, 50 softlight merge mode to background become the definitive draw.

Now the foreground needs some perfectioning touch, as it is possible to see in the enlargement in the 52 icon. I put the background to object and, on a copy of the draw, I light the dark edges of the image with clonetool and, when they disappear, I combine all levels into background, I increase the definition and finish my work.(click on the 51 to see an enlargement of the image).
I know that the following of this path has not been very simple, but however I hope to have succeded in a sufficiently clear and useful explanation.
