Emboss Text onto Curved Object Using Blender

[@cgxlv]

That Shrink Warp modifier is very handy. I was pissing around for ages trying to position text only to get shadows when importing into Unreal Engine. Nice work 👏

This is right on time! My wife was asking me to put lettering on a decorative planter box. Ideally, embossing a simple image on the box would be great.

Thank you for being one of the few videos to use a real voice on one of this tutorials! Super clear and easy to understand too

As with all projects I've tried, The text stretches on the ends when applied to my 15mm radius cylinder. Just tried Target Normal Project and it look very good if not perfect. I've been looking for this for three years. I've always used the project onto surface, even with other programs, and it always stretched out. This is the answer but in my case using Target Normal Project!
OH WAIT! This is sick. After creating a mesh one can manipulate each letter. This is a game changer!

Update: I curved the text before Target Normal Project and it works great.

when I tried, my text wasn't crisp to the sphere like in the tut.. I tried several different types of sphere and none of them had crisp angles

[@ellias4947]

once u have ur text...

[@Kotaztrafee]

Would have liked to see how the text got there.

[@amberleigh6338]

When you are in object mode, you can click 'add' as if you were adding a sphere or cube.. but instead - use the drop down box to select *Text* (The icon is an a). If you don't see it in your scene it might be because it is too small at your origin site, or it is underneath of another object in the scene. You can scale it up- and or move objects around. Once you click your text object an a icon will appear in your side bar to the right and you can change your fonts and such and the other stuff he goes through in the video. You can only change what your text says in edit mode. Hope this helps :) @@Kotaztrafee
