However,

(HERE’S MY QUESTION)

How do I add that flashy/appearance effect?

You can see it on the “Wings of Liberty” text.

Thanks All.

you could do it either by smoke or just particles… the ins and outs of how to create them i couldnt tell you but andrew shows you how in some of his other videos its just a case of adapting to your needs
