Keep the smoke source pic invisible until you need it to get some more smoke. The face should be kept visible at all times, so you can place use the smoke as a template, placing the smoke where you think smoke should go, if by some chance you happened to meet a ghost with a tendency to go under burnt-out candles.



I had some problems with the nose and the mouth, but here are some tips:


  • Start off with a big brush, just putting smoke basically where it should go. Bother with details later.
  • Remember smoke doesnt just *finish*, make it fade slowly away.
  • Even if normal smoke didnt do this, its important that you make the nose and mouth somehow whiter than the rest, so it looks like a nose and mouth.
