Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in
Photoshop
Halloween is near! So let's take a pumpkin image, carve it up, and light it for this coming
holiday. You'll learn how to get this nice effect on any pumpkin picture, how to play with the
colors, apply some layer blending modes to skip the extraction process, and more.
Final Image Preview
Before we get started, let's take a look at the image we'll be creating. You can view the final
image preview below or view a larger version here.
Step 1
Let's begin. First create a new document, use the size of your screen resolution if you want to. In
my case 1440 pixels by 900 pixels. Then fill the background with a radial brown to black
gradient. Notice that I always use two guides to obtain the center of the document.

Step 2
Now look for your pumpkin image, or download this picture and paste it into the middle of the
document. It doesn't matter if your pumpkin is too large or wide or even if the colors aren't right.
That's why we'll be using Photoshop, to make it look like a contest winner pumpkin.
Extract the pumpkin from the background, you can use the Lasso Tool or by creating a path
around the contour and creating a vector mask, either way it's fine. Free Transform the pumpkin
to reduce it width. Also, take care with the details, like the little branch on the top, I'm making it
softer. Finally, you'll get something like the bottom of the image below.

Step 3
Select the "Pumpkin" layer, then using the Lasso Tool, make a selection around the little branch
area and hit Command + Shift + I to invert the selection. This way you'll be editing all the
pumpkin without the branch area, then hit Command + U to adjust the Hue/Saturation of the
selection mark the Colorize option to make the selection more orange. If you want, set the first
group of values of the image below. Invert the selection again and hit Command + U to adjust
the Hue/Saturation of the branch this time, make it more green you can use the second group of
values shown below.

Step 4
Hit Command + L to adjust the levels of the "Pumpkin" layer, increase the dark areas levels, you
can set the values below. Also, it's a good moment to resize the pumpkin if you want it a little bit
smaller.

Step 5
Create a new layer above the pumpkin, name it "Sketch." Now using the Brush Tool, draw a
quick sketch of the pumpkin face: the eyes, nose, and mouth, I'm using a tablet so this step is
really easy. Anyway, you can use the Pen Tool, draw the face, apply a Stroke effect to the paths,
and change Fill value to 0%, then rasterize the result by merging the paths layer with an empty
layer above or below it.
Step 6
![Page 10: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near! So let's take](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042400/5f0ec00f7e708231d440c1dc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Now create a new layer above the "Sketch" layer, name it "Fill." Next, using the Magic Wand
Tool, select inside the sketch. Now. using the Fill Tool, fill the selection with black into the
"Fill" layer. Then hide the "Sketch" layer.
![Page 11: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near! So let's take](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042400/5f0ec00f7e708231d440c1dc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Step 7
Now to create a inner light effect, apply a Radial Gradient Overlay effect and also a Pattern
Overlay effect to the "Fill" layer. Just set the Blend Mode of the Gradient Overlay to Multiply to
see the pattern effect.
![Page 13: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near! So let's take](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042400/5f0ec00f7e708231d440c1dc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Step 8
Command + Click on the "Fill" layer's miniature to select the holes' shapes. Select the
"Pumpkin" layer and fill the selection into a layer mask, or simply delete the selection. Then put
the "Fill" layer below the "Pumpkin" layer in the layer palette and place the "Sketch" layer above
everything.
![Page 15: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 9
Now let's add some light sources, in this case some candles, I'm using this one. Paste it into a
new layer and just make a quick selection around the candle, hit Command + Option + D to
Feather the selection, Command + Shit + I to invert it, and then delete the selection. You'll get
something like the image below.
Now, a good way to add this candle to our design without spending hours extracting the fire is by
changing the "Candle" layer Blending Mode to Screen. Just put the candle layer below the
"Pumpkin" layer and above the "Fill" layer. Duplicate the candle a few times if you want to.
![Page 17: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 10
Show the "Sketch" layer, and draw some lines to improve the hole's effect by adding depth.
Select the new areas using the Magic Wand Tool. Create a new layer below the "Pumpkin" layer,
I call it "Fill 2," and fill the selection with black. Finally, hide the sketch once again.
![Page 19: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 11
Now add a Radial Gradient Overlay and a Pattern Overlay effect to the "Fill 2" layer just to give
it more depth and texture.
![Page 21: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 12
Now it's time to add some light and dark details to our pumpkin. Create a new layer called "Light
details." Start with a small soft brush maybe around 5px, paint a few lines close to the carved
edge borders and use the Smudge Tool to make the lines softer.
![Page 23: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 13
Add more clear lines over the white light reflections.
Step 14
Now to add volume to the holes' borders. Let's add some soft dark lines here and there. Create a
new layer called "Dark details" and use the same 5px brush, but this time change the color to a
dark brown. Then Smudge the lines a little bit.
![Page 25: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near! So let's take](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042400/5f0ec00f7e708231d440c1dc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Step 15
Now select the "Fill 2" layer, and in the Layers Palette double-click on the Gradient Overlay
effect and change the gradient to make it more light with these colors: (#741A02 - #AC3304).
Hit OK and see the result.
Step 16
Again, using the dark Brush, paint some dark areas inside the carves. This way you'll have inner
shadows for each hole.

Step 17
Duplicate the "Fill" layer and name it "Light." Delete the layer styles and fill it with orange.
Place it above all other layers and convert it into a Smart Object. Next go to Filters > Blur >
Radial Blur, then set the Amount 100, Zoom, and Best Quality. Apply the filter one more time
and change the layer's Blending Mode to Linear Dodge (Add).

Step 18
Now duplicate the "Light" layer and render the filters, you can do that by adding a blank layer
above "Light copy" and merge both. Then apply a Gaussian Blur with a Radius 25 - 26 px to
"Light copy" layer. Also, change it's Blending Mode to Linear Dodge (Add). Duplicate "Light
copy" layer one more time, then using the Lasso Tool, delete the pumpkin's tooth area without
light on the "Light copy 2" layer.
![Page 31: Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshophartington.esu1.org/~mhochstein/Graphic Design...Design a Halloween Pumpkin Wallpaper in Photoshop Halloween is near!

Step 19
Now, we'll add a nice background. Create a new layer just above the "Background" layer, and
name it "Clouds." Press the D Key on your keyboard to set the default black and white colors.
Next, go to Filter > Render > Clouds, hit Command + F a few times until you're happy with the
result.
Go to Filter > Render > Difference Clouds and apply that filter a few times until you've got
something like the middle of the image below. Then go to select "Clouds" layer and change it's
Blending mode to Color Dodge, this way we'll be merging the clouds with the background radial
gradient.
Finally, merge both the "Background" and the "Clouds" layer, and name this new layer "Bg1," or
if you want to keep these layers editable, put both into a new folder, convert it into a Smart
object, duplicate the Smart Object, and rasterize it.

Step 20
Using the Lasso Tool, select a big area of "Bg1" layer and copy it. Paste the copy just above the
first one and resize it a little bit, then name it "Bg2." Next, hit Command + U to adjust the
Hue/Saturation, change the Hue values to make it more red. Next, change the "Bg2" Blending
Mode to Screen.

Step 21
Add a few more clouds repeating the previous step, use different colors. When you have
finished, create a new folder and put all the clouds in it, then convert the folder into a Smart
Object.
Step 22
Notice that our pumpkin has a black shadow on the left side. We'll try to keep that lightening in
the final outcome. Select the "background" layer's Smart Object, and go to Layer > Layer Mask
> Reveal all.
Now, using the Eliptical Marquee Tool, draw an ellipse as shown. Next, while holding the Shift
key, draw another eliptical selection on the pumpkin's base. Then hit Command + Option + D to
Feather the selection about 50px. And fill the selection with black directly into the layer mask.

Step 23
Now add a surface. Draw a black rectangle using the Rectangle Tool just above the
"backgrounds" layer, then change the rectangle's Opacity to 75%.

Step 24
Now we need a ground shadow, Create a new layer called "Ground shadow" above every layer
on your design. Make an eliptical selection, then Feather it 50px, and fill it with black. Next,
using the Lasso Tool, draw an irregular shape following pumpkin's shape. Feather the selection
about 20 pixels and Delete it. Then change the layer's Opacity to 75%.

Step 25
Next, create a new layer below the "Ground shadow" layer and name it "Inner Shadow." Now
using a big dark brush, paint some areas inside the eyes, nose, and mouth. Command-click the
"Fill" layer, Command + I to inverse the selection, and Delete all the extra painting of the "Inner
Shadow" layer. Then Command-click the "Fill 2" layer, Feather the selection 2 pixels and Delete
it.

Step 26
We're close to finished. Now we'll add more details. Duplicate one of the candles, name it
"Candle Front," and bring the layer above all the others. As you can see, the original candle
picture has a black fade out that we don't need right now, we need to fix that. Make a linear
selection on the "Candle Front" layer, then using the Free Transform options (V), make the
selection higher. Fix the brighter areas next to the candle using the Clone Tool and Erase all the
dirty areas.

Step 27
Next select the Clone Tool, set the cloning source somewhere inside the candle, set a small brush
and draw some wax drops all around the candle. Use the Smudge Tool to improve the wax drops.
Also, use the Clone Tool to add some lightening details.

Step 28
Duplicate the "Candle front" layer. Go to Edit > Transform > Flip Vertical, and add to it a Layer
