Let’s begin!Tutorial Resources
Step 1
Create a new document in Photoshop with any size and orientation. You can use the same techniques for any canvas size. For this example, I will use a 750 x 456 PX document with the settings below:
Step 2
Create a new layer for the background and fill it with a green color#0a4146 using the Paint Bucket Tool (G). This will be the base color of the water.
Step 3
Next, you will create the top of the water using this Ocean Brush (you can find this brush and others in the underwater brushes pack). Create a new layer and name it Ripple. Paint the top of the water with a white color#ffffff using the Ocean Brush. Follow the direction of the waves as you paint.
Step 4
Create another layer and name it Ripple2. Place it above all the other layers. Use this brush to add some ripples to the water surface with a white color#ffffff. This will create a glowing effect for more realism.
Step 5
Now, you will create some splash water effects in Photoshop. Create a new layer and name it Splash. Use this Splash Brush to paint some falling water splashes with a white color#ffffff. You can vary the size and opacity of the brush to create different effects.
Step 6
Next, you will create the bottom of the water surface using this brush. Create a new layer and paint it with a white color#ffffff
This will create some highlights and reflections on the water.
Step 7
Finally, you will add some light rays to the underwater scene using this Light Brush. You will get 5 different brushes in the pack. You can use any of them. Create a new layer and paint some light rays with a white color#ffffff. You can adjust the size, opacity, and angle of the brush to create different effects.
