How to draw 3D bubble letters

Draw your bubble letters first and finish the outline. Pick one direction for the shadow, say down and to the right, and stick to it for every letter. From each outer corner and curve, draw a short line in that direction, all the same length. Then connect the ends of those lines with a curve that follows the shape of the letter, and erase anything hidden behind the letter.

Fill the shadow with a darker shade of the letter color or with plain gray, and leave the front of the letter lighter. That contrast is what makes it look raised.

Common mistakes

Changing the shadow direction halfway through the word is the big one. The other is making the shadow too deep: about a quarter of the stroke width is plenty. Deeper than that and the letters start to look like blocks.
