Gold, Silver text - meetdilip - 03-29-2020

Can someone please tell me how to convert a plain text to Golden or Silver letters ? Will it work on non-Latin characters as well ?

Of course, there is no gold or silver paint in Gimp. You need to introduce some sort of shading, usually by applying a bumpmap. Does not have to be text, can be a painted shape.

However using text, something like this:  https://youtu.be/Bv3lY5i3CMY   duration two and a half minutes.
