In this tutorial I will show you with an example of horse how to turn an ordinary animal to a robot.
Step 1
4 m; l7 a# Y& {# @3 sThe first thing you need to do is to find a great source image to start with. The techniques of this tutorial can be used
on any animal or even human, so choose something to your liking. Try to find expressive and clean image, it is one of the important steps that will ensure great result.
3 T7 u0 s1 @- v6 t- g* ]I chose a photo of horse that I had taken this summer. Why this one? It is crisp and has a beautiful perspective. And finally, I just love it.
Step 2
Now we have to find mechanical parts for our horse. Different photos of cars, motorcycles, engines, even washing machines and medieval armor are our purpose.
Here is the set of links to photos that I used in this tutorial:

7 w' L" ^: [5 M: |7 u- {Open the photo of motorcycle engine and select the proper part. There are many different ways to select something. It is easier to make an exact selection of mechanical part with Pen Tool because such parts usually have smooth and flat contours. Use Lasso Tool for more complex contours.
Copy selected part to the document with horse. Press Ctrl+T and then resize, move and transform the part to give it the best fit. This operation will be the main one until you cover the animal with metal parts completely.

Sometimes you’ll need to adjust the form of a part. Go to Filter - Liquify… and use Forward Warp Tool (it is usually selected by default) to give it the best look.

When you’ve done with one neck plate, duplicate the layer to create the next. Adjust its size and angle. Repeat this procedure until the whole neck will be covered with plates. Notice that a certain gap between the plates is needed to provide the flexibility of neck.

Apply three filters one after another:

2. Filter - Artistic - Film Grain (Grain=0, Highlight Area=2, Intensity=5)
3. Filter - Brush Strokes - Angled Strokes (Direction Balance=85, Stroke Lenght=50, Sharpness=4)
At last, double click on the layer and apply the following style:

Step 14
Almost last stage. I am adding shadows to make a complete creature from the separate elements. Create a new layer above the layers with parts of robot, take hard round black brush, choose the direction of light and paint black areas where shadows supposed to be. Every element has its shadow.

I smoothed the rough edges of shadows with Smudge Tool (soft round brush, 70% strength).

Now it’s time to put the final touches to picture. Create new layer over the layers with robot, change its blending mode to Overlay, choose red color and paint a red stain over the eye. Select blue color and repeat the procedure with nostril.

Now it’s done. Thank you for reading.
