Very nice! I saw some tutorials about glowing already, but this is the first I meet wich actuall shows every single layer separated along the side. this makes things so much more logical for people like me. Thank you!

as long as there is brushtool yes xD you can even do this in ms paint, but only without using a brush you would need to make alot more gradient colors to make it look good :3 Pixelart has glow in them to x3
