Description Well, I've been in a rut lately and I needed a break from commissions. Here are a few glow techniques that I use. I am by no means an expert, but I hope these are at least useful to someone XD

If you use this on an adopt or personal work, I'd love to see it! c:

TheFireGypsy In reply to Wolfanimationfan [2012-08-13 20:04:32 +0000 UTC]

When you create a new layer, there is an option to change the layer "Mode." Different programs call it different things. Luminosity, Addition, Color dodge, etc.
