chrome type text with Blender [easy beginner tutorial]

i've seen people doing this, but the methods generally use third party paid apps + require some drawing skills. so here's a way to do it easily, with no money, no other skills, no b*tches - just free fonts, free images and our beloved open source Blender.

i used eevee (which is less cpu/gpu demanding) to render it, but you can use cycles. placing lights around the text will also give your render a different look. also feel free to use more brushes during the sculpt phase (you can use the drag brush to pull the geometry around and make the font even more personalized, for instance).

hope you like it!
