Learn how to create a super glossy text effect.

Create a new canvas 400 pixels wide and 133 pixels high with background colour #212121
Change the foreground colour to #DCDCDC and choose the font for your text. I’ve chosen “SF GRUNGE SANS BOLD” but most fonts will work (the bolder the better - try to avoid light fonts). Set the font size to 72pt and the anti-aliasing to Strong. Type HV-DESIGNS onto the canvas or what ever you feel is fit.
