Today’s texture is one of my favorite. Glossy, shiny, whatever other adjectives you would like to use. This effect is easily accomplished with software and generally creates a lovely result, and sometimes a wow factor, in any design. I was inspired by a hi-gloss, black paint job on a classic car. I chose a retro display typeface to represent the word “glossy” to enhance that classic car feeling, applying the same “glossy” techniques to create a chrome logo or name plate.
I am imagining myself cruising through the evening desert in a 57 Thunderbird or Corvette right now. Route 66, here I come! Don’t worry, I’ll be back tomorrow. Vrrrooom Vrrrrooom!
Later,
