Instead of \u2018Avengers\u2019, we will use \u2018Hongkiat\u2019 as the text, or you can use any text you please.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s get started.<\/p>\n<h2>Getting Started<\/h2>\n<p>To follow this tutorial, you will need the following resources:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vandelaydesign.com\/concrete-textures-3\/\">Concrete Texture<\/a> from vandelaydesign<\/li>\n<li>Free Alternative: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.textureking.com\/category\/concrete\/\">Free Concrete Textures<\/a> from Texture King<\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ffonts.net\/The-Avengers.font\">The Avengers<\/a> font from Owen Dawson<\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dafont.com\/the-mighty-avengers.font\">The Mighty Avengers<\/a> font from Owen Dawson<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Avenger Text Effect<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Getting the font<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with working on its characters. Our first option is using a free font type. After searching Google using the keyword \u2018free fonts Avengers\u2019, I found two fonts with an Avengers theme: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ffonts.net\/The-Avengers.font\">The Avengers<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dafont.com\/the-mighty-avengers.font\">The Mighty Avengers<\/a>. Both are made by <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.windowstipsclub.com\/\">Owen Dawson<\/a>. Unfortunately, neither has the complete alphabet for our project.<\/p>\n<p>The first font has no K and O. We need these two characters in \u2018Hongkiat\u2019. Also, we cannot use its A character because it is not suitable if used between letters, such as in \u2018Hongkiat\u2019.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Avengers font preview\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-01.jpg\"><\/figure>\n<p>The second font seems to be based on The Avengers original comic. It has round edges instead of sharp ones. This font style is different from its movie poster.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mighty Avengers font preview\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-02.jpg\"><\/figure>\n<p>So, our best option is to draw the characters manually. We are not going to use these fonts, but they will be useful for reference while creating the characters.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Reference<\/h3>\n<p>You should start by Googling \u2018The Avengers\u2019. This is what I use for our reference. Save the image file, create a new file in Adobe Illustrator, then paste the file. Click Object &gt; Lock &gt; Selection to lock the image and prevent it from being edited accidentally.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Avengers movie logo reference\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-03.jpg\" width=\"720\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 3: Making Characters<\/h3>\n<p>In the current \u2018AVENGERS\u2019 text, we can find N and G, which are used in \u2018HONGKIAT\u2019. Make a new layer, then use the pen tool to trace characters N and G.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tracing N G Illustrator\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-04.jpg\" width=\"542\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 4<\/h3>\n<p>For the other characters (H, O, K, I, A, and T), we will base them on other available characters. For I, we use the available N character and remove half of it.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Creating I from N Illustrator\" height=\"210\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-05.jpg\" width=\"372\"><\/figure>\n<p>For O, we modify E by closing it and adding a hole in its center.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Creating O from E Illustrator\" height=\"199\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-06.jpg\" width=\"366\"><\/figure>\n<p>For K, we can simply modify R by cutting its upper part.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Creating K from R Illustrator\" height=\"182\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-07.jpg\" width=\"378\"><\/figure>\n<p>We also use R as the base character for A.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Creating A from R Illustrator\" height=\"192\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-08.jpg\" width=\"391\"><\/figure>\n<p>For T, we use the A character that we created earlier.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Creating T from A Illustrator\" height=\"176\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-09.jpg\" width=\"314\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 5<\/h3>\n<p>Place all these characters into position.

For the H, we can use the preview font <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ffonts.net\/The-Avengers.font\">The Avengers<\/a> as a reference.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Drawing H character Illustrator\" height=\"448\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/avengers-text-effect\/avenger-text-effect-11.jpg\" width=\"584\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 7<\/h3>\n<p>Draw two circles from the same origin.
