How do I create this effect?

Postby desipaperthings » Sat May 27, 2017 8:03 pm

Hello all,
I'm new to Inkscape but wanted to recreate this image:

I just need help creating the beveled chrome effect for the text. Is there a way to do this easily? I have already tried the built in filters but don't like the effect they give. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

No easy way that I know of!

I might be possible to find a layered font that will do that. But otherwise, you'd have to either trace this image (manually or auto-traced). Of if you want something that's just like that, you'd have to use it for a model, to treat different text in a similar way.
