How do I make an entity emit light?

Is there a way to make a mob emit light? If it needs procedures can someone help me or help make me one? I want to make a glowbug.

I don't think there's a concrete way to do it without diving into a bunch of Java coding, but you could make an invisible block that emits light and replace any air around the mob with it.
The block would need to be walked through-able, and would need to destroy itself after 1 tick, so that it wouldn't interfere with any block placements.

the easiest way to make the entity emit light is to put a torch in the main arm slot, it will work even if the model is not biped, but you will need an atomicstryker dynamic light mod to make everything work correctly
