  • Painting glow effects in digital pieces can be a challenge to do correctly for many artists. Sometimes the glow is too soft or too prominent, but in this how to guide I'll go over the best tips and tricks I've learned over the years of putting glow effects in my digital pieces. Hopefully by the end of this tutorial you'll have a good understanding of the types of glow effects you can use, how to use them correctly, and use them to add to the overall quality of your digital artwork.

    Loved this. A lot easier than how I would have gone about it (which is part of the reason my brain hurts with digital....). There's so many ways you can do one thing in PS, but I never know what's the easiest or most efficient. I would have guessed you used the feather tool - but I appreciate how you keep it simple and use different brushes instead. And yeah - that color/linear dodge is awesome.
    I also appreciate how you put it on a separate layer and emphasize always using layers. You can never have too many layers! Too much glow - yes....too many layers - no. :P

      Layers are the bread and butter of digital lol, but we also shouldn't be afraid of merging the layers down after a while, I'll probably get into that in another video.
      I'm super glad this video was helpful :)

    I've been super busy, but i saw that you posted this a day after i had to figure out glow on my recent Eris body painting that i did LOL It was an "undone" look so the plan was creating her without the mask and such. I didn't want to just color my eye lids green, so i had to figure out how to create glowy green hive eyes. My s/o was able to give me some tips and i pulled it off. I pinned on of the versions on my twitter profile.

    Shading highlights and glowing are huge pains for me to try and draw XD

    • @Gammatrap
      @Gammatrap  Před 4 lety

      It's a bit of a different technique with traditional tools, but the ideas are the same

    • @oblivioncreations
      @oblivioncreations Před 4 lety

      Of course, but since I'm trying more digital art it'll help with both of those 😁

  • @AmandaCopeteShin
    @AmandaCopeteShin Před 4 lety

    I just want to say that your knowledge helps people like me that are transitioning from traditional to digital ( this is a painful process for me, more hard work ). Do you have any course? I will go for it!

    • @Gammatrap
      @Gammatrap  Před 4 lety

      I don't have any specific course because everything I make I intend to put it here for free :) and with your previous knowledge from traditional, eventually you'll be able to use it with the program knowledge and improvement will come quickly
