Airbrush Lightning Tutorial (Part 1)

[@richardgray4109]

Hi Trevor...Thanks for taking time from your daily work to help,

[@wickedartstudio]

As always, I appreciate your support, Rich!

Awesome, Trevor! Lightning is one of the rare cases blue shift actually works in your favor. My biggest issue has always been my brain allowing me to be asymmetrical.

[@wickedartstudio]

Hey Karl! True, lightning does allow a color shift to work in your favor most of the time, but that also depends on the background color you're working over. Tinting lightning with a candy will alleviate a color shift in those instances when it does occur, and the shift is unwanted.

Very interesting, thanks for this one. i love the way you highlight with the yellow Candy.

Wasup Trevor another great video. Wonder if one could incorporate some of this technique on fire? You know when the fire in wood gets some type of air flow or wind gping through, how it's lights up and sparks and gets brighter...Great video!! Thanks for sharing!! Cheers Bud

[@wickedartstudio]

Hey Jesus! Absolutely! This is the same technique I use when painting fire over different colors. The same techniques can be applied to numerous other projects as well!

@@wickedartstudio thanks 😊 🤘🏽👍🏽

[@SthrnShutterbug]

a lot of similar techniques and ideas could be transferred to a work that includes shsattered glass, yes?

[@wickedartstudio]

Hi Jessica! For sure. These techniques can be used to create a long list of different effects, including shattered glass. Personally, I would want to use some more defined, or harder edges when rendering shattered glass, but some of these techniques would work really well for creating glint or glare on broken shards. I might have to play with that... :).

@@wickedartstudio I think I'm just mentally taking a break (u know...living vicariously thru u) lol. I've done so much for ungrateful people over the years that I just needed a mental hiatus from it. I'll get back to it eventually...in the mean time...keep those videos coming...I'll be fine ;)
