How to Make Glowing Energy Fists/Scars

[Coolcookiecat 90]

I thought this would be useful to those who want to have energy glow.

1. Make a skin with just the energy (I just made a fist)

2. Open up MI and add your skin that doesn't have the energy

3.Open up your energy skin and parent each limb to their counter part (may take a little moving around) and lock the energy limbs (everything will still work)

4. Select the energy limbs and make their brightness full. BOOM! (you can also add a light if you want)

(Random fight lmao)

That's related to the tutorial... how?

As a tutorial, I think it needs to be fleshed out a bit more. It's a basic concept, which typically would be helpful to newcomers, but the tutorial isn't descriptive enough for newcomers. Also, the method (from what I could gather) is using a duplicate arm with the "glow" texture applied? If so, that would add unwanted complications to animating and having to bend both arms to keep the textures in sync. Using a custom item, or something like that, might help to simplify the animating process?

All the pics are just for reference. They were quick things made to show what you could do. I'm not making a wallpaper or animation from them.

You should try using an animated texture, that'd look awesome!

I did not see this message at all. Sorry for the late reply and necropost. I said this to make the tutorial look more professional so the viewers trust the poster more and have a reassuring feeling that they are a professional or good enough to be making a tutorial.
