How to create 3D TEXT in Photoshop

imageI recently learned a great way of making 3D text in Photoshop which i thought was IMPOSSIBLE in Photoshop. In very short time you can create a great looking 3D text which you can use for your blogs and websites.

 

For this tutorial I am using Photoshop CS3. It can also be created using Photoshop CS2 or Photoshop 7.

 

Lets start :

 

    • Open Photoshop

 

    • Click on New to Create a New file and choose the resolution high like 1600 x 1200px. imageimage

 

    • Click OK to start creating a new image.

 

    • Now Click on Text button to begin writing on the image.

 

    • Now write the first alphabet you want to convert into 3D.image

 

    • Then right click on S layer and click on Rasterize type.image
    • Now with S layer selected Go to Edit>Transform>Distort . Now Distort the Alphabet from sides to give it a 3D look.image 
    • Right Click on S layer and select Duplicate Layer to create a Duplicate layer of S and name it as S1.

    • Now with S1 layer selected go to Edit>Free Transform. Then move the S1 layer 6 to 10 pixels up and 3 to 4 pixels right or left
