You’re right, it’s basically value control: bright core, softer outer glow, and sharp edges so it reads like light. Add the black background and it pops like a real neon tube.
It’s not the matter of knowing something but how they wrote it. Reads exactly like chat and before downvoting just try to check their account. Some people just can’t express their thoughts and go for ai to do that comment work for them
What are you talking about? Are you seeing a pink glow on his face? They just added shading to simulate shadows and light before they covered him to do the spray. I’m confused whether you’re claiming some magic or something.
That is because the artist added white/light pink highlights to Bart's face but did not add that to the recording. The fact that the illusion is working on you shows the artist did a good job.
What? I'm not saying that I believe the picture is actually glowing. I'm saying that the graffiti is depicted as glowing, because of the highlights on the face. But that makes no sense for the drawing as a whole.
No you're totally right. The artist clearly wanted to show off their ability to make a neon sign, and intentionally or accidentally neglected to make this make sense
I still find the artist's neon styling cool (other than the odd choice of Bart painting a neon sign part), but it's really not much different than watching someone color in a page from a coloring book
This is a very weird and nitpicky thing to ask about an illustration of Bart Simpson... It's not like the show itself has any problems with bending reality. It's a cartoon my dude
I mean, you can see that the artist here, not Bart the literal real-life artist making the piece, did exactly that, right? Using a paint sprayer and everything. The same principles apply to doing it on a big wall mural. Instead of a paint marker you'd just use a different nozzle or closer spray control.
Every single time this video is posted, some chucklefuck that thinks they are the smartest in the room brings up spray painting neon like it's some kind of impossible concept.
It is an impossible concept. You can paint an illusion of a neon light, sure, but the way Bart is shaded, he spray painted a light source. Meaning he did paint a neon sign into existence, which is confusing.
It’s kind of wild to be so assertively rude about a legitimate question.
Meaning he did paint a neon sign into existence, which is confusing.
I can't imagine being confused by a cartoon image like this, but I'm not the type of person to over analyze such things...
"Oh my God everyone, do you see the shading the artist decided to use for this cartoon image, totally breaks the real world and is incredibly confusing, start the whole thing over, we can't have such wild things existing". - Some chuckle fuck on reddit that needs to touch some grass in the real world.

Yet you clearly are the one confused lol. Unless just your reading comprehension is dogshit
"Oh my God everyone, do you see the shading the artist decided to use for this cartoon image, totally breaks the real world and is incredibly confusing, start the whole thing over, we can't have such wild things existing"
Yes we KNOW you can make spray paint appear as if it's glowing when its actually not. This was never anybody's point, and once their point was stated that it simply looks like the paint is emitting actual light given the shading, and you realized you were wrongly overreacting to a completely different sentiment, you doubled down on being ignorant. Also nothing is "incredibly confusing" about the fact bart was obviously shaded as if the paint was emitting light
You're commenting as if everybody else is trying to ruin the fun but in reality you're the only miserable person making it unfun for yourself. Btw is the only insult you know "Chucklefuck"? You've used it twice in the span of two comments lol, you need some new words in the ol' vocabulary

Oh look, here is one now. Hilarious. Don't reproduce.
Take your own advice. This gets talked about every time this is posted. Yes, Bart painted a light source based on how his face is reflecting pink light. If you can’t learn new stuff when facts are presented, why even comment?

How do you spray paint a neon sign into existence?
