Glowing sphere without using glow?

[Eric2575]

If I wanted to make a sphere about 6 feet in diameter and wanted it to radiate a light or glow for several feet in all directions (like a giant lightbulb with volumetrics turned on) how would I do it? I want the falloff to be further out than "glow" can provide.

 

Any ideas?

 

In the pic, you'll notice that the light projection is coming from slightly in front of the dome (klieg) I want the light projection to come from all around the dome.

this is a rush trial but i put a volmetric bulb in the globe and varied the light's fall off .

Not sure if this will be of any use but the light size (gllow) does change

oh i also added some turbulence to the light and turned down the volumetrics

You are a master at putting rough ideas into quick presentations. Your mind must always be going 100 Mph.

 

I'll check out your file and try to apply if it's the look I am trying to achieve. Will post a little later.
