What confuses me is do I connect the gather node to the Diffuse Ambient  channel of the item I want to glow... or do I connect the gather node to the item I want the glow to be on.. IE: V3's skin texture... or do I connect a gather node to all of it (Item I want to glow plus V3's skin texture)? 

Whatever I have been doing doesn't seem to be working.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
