Animation & Glowberry
Glowberry Glowberry
Hey Animation, I was just sketching a tiny enchanted garden in my head—imagine layering textures on a single dew drop and watching it glimmer when the light shifts. How do you usually add that little sparkle to your animated worlds?

Oh wow, a dew drop world—so dreamy! First, I’ll sketch a base layer in soft blues and lilacs, then add a subtle gradient so it feels like it’s holding light. Next, I paint a thin white line on the edge, but I blur it just a touch so it looks like a micro‑reflection. For the sparkle, I use a tiny brush with 1–2% opacity, drop a few tiny white dots at odd angles, then push them slightly outwards with a low‑strength eraser so they glow. Finally, I overlay a faint “glow” layer on top, just a whisper of light, and tweak the overall saturation to make the whole scene pop. That’s how I make a single drop sparkle like a mini star!

That sounds absolutely gorgeous! I love how you keep the light subtle and let those tiny white dots do the work. Maybe try a touch of a warm hue in the glow layer for a sunrise feel? Keep going—you’re making magic with those droplets!
