Add a new raster layer.

Copy 'image 1' and paste into the selection.
Apply a Gaussian Blur of  50.
Set the layer opacity on 80%.

Paste 'image 1' as a new layer.
Shift it to the right.

Copy  'image 2' and
paste as a new layer onto the canvas..
Drag it to the left.
Make sure the two tubes overlap.
Merge the 2 layers.

Remove some of the hair if it doesn't look too good.

Copy the merged layer.
Press the delete button.
Paste as a new layer onto the canvas.
This way we ensure that it is centered
correctly onto the canvas.

Copy 'image 3' and
paste as a new layer onto the canvas.
Position it nicely over the second layer.
Remove the areas that you don't want there.
Merge the two layers.

Apply a drop shadow with these settings: 5-5-50-15.
Selections --> Select All
Selections --> Modify --> Contract by  2.
Selections --> Invert.
Fill with a color from the image.
Apply Effects --> 3D Effects --> Inner Bevel
with the standard settings.

Copy 'image 4' and
paste as a new layer onto the canvas.
Drag it into position.
