For Anime in Blender - Glowing Glasses Free 3D model

Hey all!

Anime has a treasure trove of tropes and I'd love to share one with you guys! This has never come up in my projects, but I thought it would be a fun one to build and share with you, so here it is!

GLOWING GLASSES!!! ooooh! hehe.

Such a funny one!! When a character is acting cool, thinks they are cool or are acting mysteriously - so clever to hide the eyes! In Kuroku's basketball, they also used this as a means to reveal the eyes, if memory serves. VERY clever use of visual language!

Hope you love it! I made it quite custom to give you all the controls you would need - even adding a streak blur that is purely horizontal (off by default, since it doesn't show up that way in anime - as far as I've seen at least).

Works with Cycles and Eevee!

Features:

• Image
  Regular render input
• Glasses Mask
  Literally the object you want to be glowed
• Glow Color
  Allows you to colorize the glow you get. I've seen some orange glasses too, so this will facilitate that.
• Glow Intensity
  VERY important for clarity. By default it's set quite high.
• Lens Blur Size
  Sometimes the lenses can use some blurring of their own just to soften their harsh outline a bit. Very low setting by default.
• Horizontal Streaks Intensity
  Usually set to 0, because it's not really used in anime persay, but I saw people who made their real-life version of the glasses loved adding this kind of streak glow, so I added it too.

As far as usage goes - don't limit yourself to just glowing glasses. Fireflies and other forms of light, like bulbs, can also be glowed like this. Or things that give off lots of energy and light, like white explosions. Be creative and let your mind run with it!

Have a great one!!Blessings!
