Hello, fellow conscripts!

So I have been searching all over YouTube for a tutorial on painting red hot glowing gun barrels, but no luck. I only find burnt iron tutorials and such. Just for clarification- I am wanting to paint a Leman Russ Punisher Cannon to look like it had just spent an entire load of ammo, just like an m134 after a minute of firing. Are there any tutorials on painting barrels to have that beautiful orange glow after spreading the Emperor's will down range? Thank you!!!

Maybe try looking up some object source lighting techniques. That sounds like what you're after.
