Angel and Demon Civil War

My Apocalyptic Assignment: I decided to create a theory and a image of a futuristic post-apocalyptic world.

Theory: Unknown to humanity, the battle between demons and angels didn’t end years  before. The devil, Lucifer was banished down to hell by the Archangel, Michael. 66 years was created to keep Lucifer caged, in order to create some sort of peace for humanity. Now the seals to Lucifer’s cage is broken by the demons. Therefore Lucifer arises and walks the earth to bring the apocalypse to humanity. First Lucifer shuts down humanity’s technology, since without technology humanity wouldn’t survive smoothly without the everyday resources. Many would have to rely on limited food and water. So hunger would be a major issue with humanity. Second, since humanity is cut off from their resources. They would grow hungry and weak, vulnerable to the pandemics, contagious diseases that sweep through the earth to kill off half of the population. Since the disease is untreatable, especially without the required resources. Most people have to stay inside their homes for safety.Third, the demons releases a second kind of disease that causes humans to go insane quickly, then they kill or infect other uninfected humans. To be infected you have to have blood to blood contact. Fourth, the remaining population of humanity would grow scared and most would want to survive. So in order to survive, they must kill the infected, but not just the infected. Most would kill each other just for limited resources. Become the savage monsters like the demons and angels. Lastly during the humanity crisis, Michael garters his army of angels to fight against Lucifer’s demon army. What took Michael so long is that he needed a human vessel. A chosen one that would say yes in order for him to go into his or hers body. He got the chosen one and crash down with his army to fight the supernatural war. Therefore causing huge impacts to the environment of Earth, examples like: huge craters, plants dying, abandoned and broken buildings, and etc. The war was unknown to the suffering humanity mostly because it was invisible to the human eye. So it is a tragedy humanity has to suffer the supernatural war, that is unknown to them. With blood shed on the planet. With blood shed in heaven and hell. Would there still be hope?

Included in the artwork:
the smoke clouds represents supernatural entities. 
Black and red smokes are demons.
White and glowing smokes are angels.
The Huge smoke effect near the left side buildings are demons and angels fighting to the death.
People are shown killing other people, this represents that the one that is attacking is infected and the one that is dead or victimized is is uninfected. 

What I did: i added an extra fire in to the left buildings by masking. 

Layer 11: I added an extra light on Michael and Lucifer to show the angel glow that they have. Then I used adjustment curves to darken the image.
Layer 10: I layered Lucifer and Michael on the top left corner to show that they are fighting. 
Layer 9: I added specs of light that are mixed within the dark smoke to show that angels are fighting with them. 
Layer 8: I layered the dark smoke cloud from a show call Supernatural on top of the left flaming buildings. this is to show what a true demon looks like to a human.
Layer 7: I added more fire to cover the back buildings and hue and saturate the fire to match the image. 
Layer 6: I added fire to the image to show that the angels and demons are fighting with to hide from the human eye.
Layer 5: I added more buildings to the left. More from the internet and one duplicated from the original photo. 
Layer 4: I layered a tree from the internet, a photo of me pretending to stab my sister, and a dead person from the internet to the image. I used burn tool to show shading. Then I used hue and saturation to me and the person to match the tone of the image.
Layer 3: I added a broken up car from the internet and my own photo into the image. Then I used the burn tool to add shading. 
Layer 2: I liquefied the buildings, making them crushed and bent to show that the angels and demons were thrown into the buildings when fighting. Then I added quakes and cracks to express that earth quakes can happen when the angels and demons are battling. 
Layer 1: I started in photoshop with a photo of some buildings near Square One. I masked some portions out and layer it on top of a purple sky image. The sky image is layer with a orange sunset sky image to create a dull but lovely contrast. I used hue and saturation to express the atmosphere of the layered image.
