Applying brushes to letters outlines isn't always the best way to text effects.
This way gives quickly sophisticated and much more neat effects.
a. type the text
b. draw free lines in the middle of each letter
Then apply brushes to these lines!
Advantages of this process:
-you can use any brush and play with line width, pressure profiles, ...,
-you can use it with imported scanned texts
-if you use script fonts, their character will be preserved,
-if you use more classic fonts, you can add the level of freedom and unprecision you want while drawing the lines,
-you can easily modify the width, pressure or other settings for each isolated element, ...
Enjoy,
