'ello! lydia here. :)

anyway, so, i guess i'm finally doing a tutorial. i kinda suck at em, but i'll give it a try. also, warning! i am a desktop designer, not a mobile designer meaning i use photoshop. so, i'll use photoshop terms through all of this. sorry!

okie, let's go!

step one:

just some nice text. if you've known me for a while y'all know i love desire so much. not because it's a particularly good font. it's more of it literally works for everything. also, there are so many different character types. it's also free! :)

step two:

put on a nice color overlay. or just change the color of the text. both work.

step three:

pull up bevel and emboss and change the glass contour to those curves. i have no idea if mobile designers have this. i think procreate does? at least i heard it does.

step four:

just adjust the depth and size until it looks alright. play around with it a little bit.

step five:

contour!! just make it a curve. curves are nice. put the range to 100% or whatever looks good.

step six:

satin! just put it as a darker gold color. if you want me to be perfectly honest, i have no idea what it does. it just makes it duller but it also makes it prettier in my opinion. more smooth and all that.

final result:

and voila! it's pretty easy on photoshop, but i have no idea how it works on mobile. i'm so sorry that this was so unhelpful for anyone who uses a mobile app without these tools. i know how much harder mobile is compared to us desktop users. everyone on photoshop just gets to cheat a lil bit.
