In this tutorial we will show you how to create a Fire Text in Corel PhotoPaint.
Open the image in PhotoPaint.
The image opens as the Background object
Create some black text.Change the paint colour to black first, then create the text.
I used a font called Georgia at 96 points
With the text object selected, apply a Whirlpool effect: Effects/Distort/Whirlpool
In the Whirlpool dialogue box set the Smear length = 12
Press OK
After doing so, select the background object and duplicate it (CTRL+D).
Using the Object Docker, move the duplicate fire object so that it is above the Fire text object and rename it ‘Clipped Object’
by double-clicking on the object’s name:
Change the merge mode of the Clipped Object t Difference
Change the Fill Color to White (left-click on the white colour swatch on the Palette).
And then, create a new object: Object/Create/New Object and drag it to below the Fire text object
in the Object Docker and change its name to ‘Blender’.
Make sure this object is selected
then fill it with white using the Fill Tool
This is the result:
You can also fill it with black color, this is the result:
