Watch This Fiery Photoshop Glow Technique in Action!

by 03.16.2025

My video art diary of my work for my independent comic book, The Lucent. This comic book art is actually for my trading card set, available to order at thelucentcomic.com. In it I’m working on a panel where I get to use one of my favourite Photoshop colouring techniques. I create a new layer, then add inner and outer glow to that layer, and just brush on fire in real time. The effect is instantaneous and gorgeous! It also allows me to separate this small character better from the background behind him.

My name is Michael Bancroft and I’m an independent comic book writer and artist. If you’re a fan of the indies, or comic books in general, especially European and French-style Bande Desinnée, then please check out my channel. I want to make more original content based on my own work, so if you’re interested in this kind of video, please hit like, subscribe, and leave a comment.
