Hi all
Am still new to Maya. Can anybody tell me how one can make an object glow - with the glow around the object appearing as streaks of light emitting from the object.
-or-
Is there a way to make it look as if light is emitting in streaks from a 3D object
-or-
To make an object as the light source.
Thanks in Advance
Hi!
Make a blinn material in hypershade then in the attribute editor change incandescence to 1/4 part from 1 part, and amibient color to 1/2 part. Then for the much better looking cshange their (ambient color and incandescence) to some other color what you want to glow. Then make some light, too, perhaps spot light.
I hope I helped on you,
Good luck for it,
Martin
it seemed to work even better for me with a phong material instead of blinn but it shouldn't matter too much in terms of overall quality at the end.
