Haunted

Trying for effect an apparition/ghost scene, just for something different to try to paint....Jack.

Yikes!!!!!!!!!

Looks spooky and emotive and vaporous and all that Gothic stuff.

Only comment would be that his left hand (to our right) is a wee bit too small even considering foreshortening. With some clever selecting and copying and pasting you could resize it to fit with a few good painting tricks I'm quite sure you're up to. Small matter really.

As to the theatricality of this, it's a grand thing to have a ghost that broadcasts his feelings as this one does. After all, ghosts are about stirring up emotions. And this lad's got a story for sure.

I like the minimal color. Reminds me of the old black and white horror movies that scared me sleepless as a kid.

Excellent. You nailed it!

I did a similar kind of study of making someone slightly transparent once in Photoshop. I recall a lot of my approach but haven't tried it in ArtRage yet, going to have to give that a try at some point.

Inspiring me! Good stuff buddy, keep it up.

You did a nice job of giving form to the mass of the body while maintaining the transparency.

First time I ever even thought to high-five a vaporous apparition!!! But I'll just have to screw up my courage and have a whack!!!! AWESOME YOU TROUBLESOME SPECTER!!!!!!! (speaking to the ghost here)

Good one Jack!
