See on the right side of the maintitle here:

How like, it is light, then a bit darker, then a bit darker, and so forth. Ive tried to do that many ways, but I cant. Can someone explain it to me? i.e What tool you use, what opacity/layer settings, etc.

Create the large shape, then duplicate the layer. Transform it with Edit >> Transform. Each of these layers should be at about 20-25% opacity. Layering them up will produce the lightened effect.

If you feel confident with the technique, you can then start phasing the colors on your own instead of using opacity to set the variance.
