If you’re familiar with George R. R. Martin’s epic Game of Thrones, you know that the area north of Castle Black is sometimes called the Land of the Always Winter. It is cold and gloomy by design. The White Walkers, for unknown reasons, have made it this way. So it is incumbent upon Deke to take his model so far and mask him away from his white surroundings and place him against an unimaginably grim backdrop that involves the Clouds and Motion Blur filters. This is the most intense step in the entire process.

Martin's epic, … Game of Thrones, you know that the area … north of Castle Black is sometimes called … the Land of Always Winter. … It is cold and gloomy by designs. … The White Walkers, for unknown reasons, … have made it this way. … is go over to the Layers panel … and make sure that the top layer, … which happens to be a layer group called Eyes is selected. … And that way can create a new layer on top of it. … And you do so by pressing Control + Shift + N, … or Command + Shift + N on a Mac. … And I'll go ahead and call this guy gloom and then click OK. … And next, we want to apply a couple of editable Smart Filters, … which means that we need to convert … this entirely empty layer, by the way, … and choose Convert to Smart Object. … Now I want you to tap the D key … to instate the default foreground and background colors … Then I'll click OK. … I set the Blend mode, as you can see right there, … to Color, so that I'm colorizing that background. …
