Learning how to make realistic shadows in Photoshop. It isn't easy and can really make or break the realism in a photo like this.Related content

I add a transparent layer and paint on the shadow with a soft brush, then apply a gaussian blur and / or adjust the layer's opacity. That way I can play with the shadow until it looks right without affecting the rest of the composition. I model for art classes and learned about shadows from the instructor's lectures too.
