Country:  | Nope, I left the transparency on where it has the sea bottom as a background. I think it gives it a nice ghostlike look. I made the part over the ship solid, but you can just see the beginning of the hull, but very faint. Did some shadow as you suggested.

Country: | I understand.Nice looking is the pic.Did you use the same settings for the Swordfish shadow like you did for the newspaper?If not I think you should do it.

Country: | Good eye, I thought you didn't notice. I have to change the newspaper's shadow, but didn't do it jet

Country: | I agree ,very nice Marcel. 
And I thought that an very interesting effrct could be if you could make the Swordfish pic not only a sepia one but using the blue colour range.In another word instead of sepia , the blue.I wonder how it would be looking like.

Country: | Okay, I had to figure out how this works in Paintshop pro, but let's see: I overdid it a little to see the effect. First one is done with the red/green/blue effect., enhancing blue, the second one with the Channel mixer, god knows what the difference is. You see quite a difference in effect, the first staying much more close to the sepia effect and is much more subtile, while the second one gives a blue-greenish effect.. Some shadows/fades don't work out well (see cockpit) I'll have to try and correct this.

Country: | Hi Marcel,
The second effect is not good.The green colour doesn't match.The first one looks much better but I would suggest to get a sample of a blue ( the dark one for instance) colour from the background.Or use a range made with these background blue ones.

Country: | Hi Wojtec, I agree, but I also overdid it to test the two different effects as I had no idea what they really did.
What you suggest: I have no idea how to do that in Paintshop Pro, so it'll be a nice thing to find out. Will take me a while, but it'll be a nice thing to learn. I'll post results later.

Country: | Photoshop has the Effect menu and there are some with their settings.I think Paintshop Pro should have the same options.If not use Color option froim Upper menu and then Colorize one.For getting colour you can can use a dropper ( in menu on left).

Country: | Oh... too much dark.Plese, try to use other tonalities.But idea is good.Also , try to gain a ghost effect.
Ah Marcel, in addition, is there possibility of removing the background under the Swordfish? In that way you will have white background and you can use transparency settings for better adjusting.
And can you send me PDF file of the project?

Country:  | I agree with Wojtec. A lighter blue would be better whilst keeping the same transparent ghost effect.
