Lightning bolts — jagged branching strikes with a soft glow — bring storm energy to a finish. Best used on large panels where a full bolt can travel.

How it sprays

Hand-cut jagged stencil with a wide low-pressure glow pass first, then a tight bright core pass over it.

Choosing colors

Pale blue-white bolts over near-black is the photoreal take; electric yellow is the comic-book take.
