How can I stretch text like the Laika logo?

This is a better example of what I was trying to do in a previous question of mine. That discussion concluded at handle transform, but nothing too reliable. Any ideas with this Laika logo in mind, where I could take text like "Laika" and stretch it in the style of the logo?

The trouble with unified transform is it would twist the perspective instead of just the diagonal stretch on top. Does anyone have experience with handle transform, and can confirm it would work like the above?

I AI-generated some skin ideas for Moira, thoughts?

Idk if AI is allowed here, but I'm no artist.

For wizard Moira in particular, she could get some awesome skin specific voice lines:

  • A touch of the arcane
  • Magic made manifest
  • I'm just warming up
  • If only they could see me now

I was inspired by her orb

What do you guys think?

How do I stretch by vertices without perspective change?

I was working on manipulating a text box, and I found this Reddit post but its not quite what I imagined (2nd pic). I want to do something like the first pic, and I think it has to do with shearing, but I've tried the perspective tool, unified transform, and handle transform but no dice. Maybe I have to constrain the unified transform? The last pic is from this youtube tutorial, which is almost what I want, but it seems too complicated for such a simple goal.

How do I save a transparent background result from darken blend mode?

I'm trying to make an iron on print for a shirt. In paint.net, the darken tool for blend layer works perfectly, like the first image. But, when I try to save or copy that image, I lose the transparent background the darken tool created, as the second picture shows on the arms and face. I need a way to extract the transparent result I get on my top layer that comes from the darken blend mode - how do I do it? If not, maybe I can layer down and magic select my image but I'd really prefer to get the image of the thinker with parts made transparent
