Is there a way to make characters look like ghosts or apparitions by adjusting opacity or something like that?

    Yes, but then you will also see the insides of the face, like the mouth and eyes. You can just them off. You use the Surfaces Tab and set Opacity to what you like.

    You could do it in postwork...here's one fairly easy way:

    Render the scene twice, once with the figure 100% visible, and once with the figure invisible or removed. Layer the two images over each other in Photoshop, GIMP, or the software of your choice, and set the top layer at some midrange percentage of opacity.

    That's how I created this:

    Or you could get pwGhost and do this...

    Hey guys, sorry for not including the software, it's DS 4.6.

    Scott - That is exactly what I'm looking for. Maybe not as transparent. Guess I'll have to get and learn Gimp.

    Jade and Vask, I'll check out what you listed.

    My hope was to do this without postwork, but it looks like that is the easiest thing to do.

    The pwGhost and Doing it by Surfaces in the Surface Tab with the Opacity setting are both Render in options. Here is a Water Girl I did with the Surfaces settings...
