3) I gathered a few references from the internet and detailed further.
4) Added light glows and dark glows by painting on a new layer set to Overlay.
5)
a. For coloring I created a new Overlay layer, and colored in the basic hues.
b. I also made a Color Dodge layer; choose very saturated red/orange colors and gave the highlights that fire glow like feel.
6.)
a. Created the final touches by creating a new Color Burn layer, picked a red/orange color and converted most of the white in the picture to orange. Just something more colorful than pure white is the point.
b. For the final touch I added fire debris from the moon just by creating a new Color Dodge layer and using a custom brush with Scatter set to 1000% in the brush properties. Then I just spray dots all over the place to add that extra detail the picture needs.
The entire picture took 3 days, and using the gray scale method and a little confidence in your ability you can really crank out artwork fast this way.
