    Here is an attempt. I am stuggling with trying to replicate PS blending modes such as the colour dodge. I'll be looking forward to seeing how you did this so well

    Thanks Frances for sharing your drawing result, itīs great, but please donīt read the tut. so exact we know this is for Ps, just translate the drawing in XD, eg, use shadows with many different colors and adjustments and trans. too in XD, another example the repeating steps in my drawing is about 12 times not 20 like in the tut
    All the trick here is to draw the text line (2 PT), apply shadow with color, clone, Lock the original and feel free to reposition the clone, move it a bit, resizing it a bit, change the outline color, change the shadow color and repeat this for about 12 times, then group all text lines. and ........
    Anyway, here attached images is Part#1 of my XD Tutorial for the background.

    Thanks for that BP. I have been wondering about you. How are you doing?

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I see now where we differed in our approach, applying the glow shadow to the bottom layer only and locking it down is what I was missing. I gave my glow shadow a multi colour linear fill as well. Thanks for posting this Mohamed, this is a great technique!

    I hope to see some works done in DP with this drawing technique.
