Write the text Techno Babe with the Electric Boots font
 settings - size 72 set to bold.
background colour #0f0f0e foreground colour #d199c5

while its still a vector layer pull out the arrows to stretch it across and down
so that it fills your space across the bottom of the tube

once happy convert to raster layer and add a drop shadow

as i have and slide this layer beneath the main tube layer

then write out your name or saying using the Angilla Tattoo set to size 70
