Puffy & bended Text Font

Hi there,

 

im really struggling to create a puffy embedded and bended text  on a egg-shaped body, which is shown in the screenshot (thats what i want to achieve). Ive already stamp the font on the curved surface which was easy. But how can i achieve this puffy look? I know a workflow for non-bended surfaces/text which doesnt work in this case. Also, stamp and then fillet the edges doesnt work neither. What would be your worklow? Seems like its lot of free modeling. Find attached my fusion file. A short screencast video would be very helpfful!

A combination of offset face, split body, and pipe commands can do this.

Offset the destination face 0mm.

In the text sketch, draw midpoint lines and arcs for each letter.

Use those as in a split body command to split the offset face.  This gives you 3d path on the face of destination body(located in the offset face).

Use that as the path in a pipe command.

Fillet the ends.

Note: This could also work with a very narrow profile and the emboss command.

Thanks a lot for your answer! 
Is it possible for you to share a short screencast of how you did this V? Or just uploading the fusion file.

Here's the file.

I experimented using a path created by Debossing half of the O, then cutting the pipe from the main body:

You could also try some of the single stroke fonts included in Fusion as the starting point.
