What Is a Hero Image?
A hero image is a term used in web design for the popular trend of placing a large banner image front and center on any website. It's the perfect way to introduce your visitors to you as well as your art and designs. And to create these stunning images, you can select from a wide variety of scene generators right on Envato Market.

Open the files for the scene generator of your choice in Adobe Photoshop. Here you'll be able to create your own scene using the assets included or choose from a selection of pre-made designs.
Switch out the background textures, tweak the lighting and overall color scheme with adjustment layers, and customize your hero images even further by dropping your own art into the customizable smart objects for a more personalized touch.
And try out these scenes for yourself using this Watercolor Mockup Scene Generator from Envato Market.
