Man and the Beast.

1- rendered the sunglasses glass into another layer and lowered opacity.

2- Rendered a tiger from a stock and placed it behind the head.

3- Rendered a eagle head and erased the areas that covered the man's face.

4- painted the rest of the sky blue (from tiger's render) so it would blend and match.

5- I inserted a landscape onto the sunglasses glass and used Overlay to blend in.

6- Rendered and place an elephant inside the sunglasses glass and painted some dirt behind the elephant's legs to create an effect which makes it look that the elephant is running in front the man.

7- Merged the layers and created a hue/saturation using yellow and a low saturation combo. Also used burn and dodge tools to refine details.

8- I duplicated the image and added a Filter > Other> High pass to sharpen details, then blended using Hard Light.
Finished the design by adding some more Dodge and Burn details to the picture.
