Hello, I am creating an image where a character has an object in his hand that glows. Does someone know how to create an effect so that the face of the character lights up and the rest of the photo is dark. Or does somebody know how to call this effect so I can look it up? I have no idea where to search for. Greetings, Dan
use brush. try to find some light effect brushes. and use white color as foreground color. or maybe add some glow effect to them. keep them in separate layer.
another options : Create new layer, and change the layer into "color overlay" make a brush on it, and done adjust the brush size to make the output better you could change the color to match the hand glowing color
So there are a range of different ways to approach this! I agree with Luka. What program/s are you using? Personally I have found photoshop to be both awesome and useless at the same time; it all depends on the user and their experience. Another question; artistic ability. Are you able enough to be able to enlarge the image paint it on? I know some truly skilled people who go that route because they know no other way. Basically, there are many ways to skin a cat. THose are my thoughts anyhow... I do not promote the act of cat skinning... Just making sure I am clear!
