@barnardco: 🤩 The magic of the Appearance Panel! Head to [Window - Appearance] and with a piece of live text selected, you can start applying all sorts of effects. For instance… * Add a new fill and drag it under your character layer * Head to [Effects - Path - Offset Path] to give your text a nice border * Then you can offset that border into a block shadow with [Effects - Distort & Transform - Transform], change the [Move] values and add some more copies at the bottom! * You can then duplicate this fill layer and adjust the colour and number of copies to layer your shadows. Don’t forget, these appearance effects can be saved as graphic styles [Window - Graphic Styles] so they can be applied to other objects/text. Have fun! 👍 #illustrator #illustratortips #graphicdesign #designtok

It’s amazing how many times I’ve been shown how to do this effect and yet this is the first time I’ve actually understood it
