So I’ve finally finished making these backgrounds for my 6 characters and of my word did they take long (initially). I was making their names then dragging each letter individually, changing its opacity, rotating and scaling it one by one, until my consult with Wessie who showed me an amazing tool which allowed me to create these backgrounds in less than a minute.
I created each name using letters and glyphs. I also gave them a small white boarder to neaten up the edges which I feel turned out really nicely.
All in all it was a long and tedious day until I learnt a nice new trick.
