thanks man, yeah i've been playing around with opacity and fill settings, to make the layers blend together more fluidly, so that might be why it doesn't glow, i tried to boost it up with doubling up the layers but it still didn't help....i think overall it looks pretty cool, what would you suggest i do to lighten it up a bit?

hey, yeah the piece looks great... as for what may help to give it some light
do you know of the program , mystic lighting made by auto fx software ?
this is a great program for all kinds of lighting issues... if you cannot find it.. ( i know they have a demo version ) let me know.. i might be able to help ya..lol..
but that is 1 way.. other ways are.. to use a new layer .. then .. set your airbrush or brush tool to .. white color.. & paint the areas you want the light to be.. then .. fade that layer to a overlay or.. soft light , etc.. depending on what exactly the look you want.
that is another way that you shouldnt need any special program for...
hope 1 of those helps.. keep it up man.. i really like the new stuff.. your work always has such a surreal, trippy, yet positive vibe to it..
