Shadow624 β€” What's This?

Description I happened to be sifting through ShadeFalcon's effects pack when I noticed this. Β Somehow, this effect was made transparent so that blending it to screen wouldn't be required. My question is... How is that possible, How is it done, and What programs are used to do it? If anyone knows how to do it, please tell me. Or, you could just tell me the technical term for it. I'd happily Google it and figure it out myself.

if you're looking at this in flash the way you do it is to make the effect into a movie clip and then set the blend to screen, lighten or add. doing it anywhere else idek but it would be something along the lines of that

Uh... What? No. This is an attack special effect unique to Iku from Touhou: Scarlet Weather Rhapsody.

Yeah I know what Volt Tackle looks like. It's infinitely more complicated looking than this.

You're gonna have to be a lot more specific than that.

That's something that takes practice and patience. It's not something I can really help with... :/

I think you can get that by making something a png in photoshop and reducing the layer transparency, you'd have to use something to get rid of the black as well but i'm not sure what

Yeah getting rid of the black is the whole problem. -_-'

I tried looking for something that would do it in photoshop, but I found nothing... I thought it would just be as simple as one of the layer options like screen, blend or dissolve but it isn't damn

Pff, so easy. Selective color. Learn how to use it, best thing ever.

Photoshop > Select > Color range

Then select black color with an eyedropper tool, and play with different values, then ok and press delete button. Should work.

I just found better, but harder way. First of all change picture to CMYK colors. Then copy whole black channel and paste it as new layer to your RGB picture. may also work with white channel. Then invert this new layer. Use Color range tool again and select black color. Press ok, and then invert selection with right mouse click. Now just make black channel layer invisible, select your image layer and press delete.

Result - completely transparent black colorΒ  i.imgur.com/OrLy69z.png

Thanks a lot! But I got the result I wanted just be using the Color Range tool. It is useful indeed.
