Description I found two amazing stockists here on DA. and . I immediately fell in love with the beautiful and somewhat eerie castles and abbeys, and the lovely time period stock. I had to merge them together and make some ghostly manipulations!

This particular one was my first using this stock. I didn't want to lose any of the detail in her costume, but I wanted to make her look ghostly, of course, so I tweaked for an hour just trying to get that done. I wanted to keep this simple, without really losing any detail of the building.

Very nice. How do you superimpose the images so not to cover the underlying image? I have been trying to figure out how to do this for ages!

Mahalo!

I haven't used dA in YEARS, so this is super-late, but to answer your question, I simply use photoshop and adjust the transparency.

I might just have to make a tutorial on that!

Thank you so very much! Glad you like it. It's totally different from my usual style, but it's something I really like to do, so it's nice to know that someone likes it. I'll keep making more!
