SA Background Progress

Thought I give you guys some sneak peek how I handle my background for SA project. All done with Photoshop CS4

Grayscale: This is probably what takes most chunk of my time. Before even deciding color, I map out which prop goes where.

Color: No need for explanation, filling up the canvas with color

Lighting & Shading: 2nd most that takes chunk of my time. Every part needs to be shaded or lighted (this is what varies how long background can be finished)

Texture & Effect: Here I added textures on the floor and on some desks, then the effect, light glares from the window. I also tweek the color if it's too saturated or not.
