Step 3
Hide the text curves in the “Outliner” by pressing (Ctrl + h).

Step 8
Hide your grid, switch to the front view, and start to draw on the letters. Make sure to fill from the inside and on the edges as shown.
Notes:
Hold the Left Mouse Button and drag anywhere to draw.
Try to draw the letters one by one (start from the edges with one stroke then fill inside with the second stroke).
If you missed a spot, press only once to fill that spot.
Avoid drawing on the same area again because intensive particle counts will make a sluggish movement.

Press “Enter” then, in the “Attributes Editor” for the particle shape, go to “Render Attributes > Particle Render Type > Cloud (s/w)”. Note: When you press “Enter” you have to wait for the program to calculate the particles.
