1.First open a new image 640 x 480 and set the background color to #F3F3F3.
2.Pick a font for your title,
this effect works best using a thicker font like impact but
you can use whatever you want.
3. Duplicate your textlayer and set the layerstyle to this:
4. Now select the original text layer and set the layerstyle to
stroke.
(use the default settings)you should have somthing like this:
5. Merge the both text layers together and then skew
(edit -> transform -> skew) so you have somthing like this:
6. Duplicate the layer and select the original layer.
7. While holding ctrl select the layer in the layers menu and fill
it
with a dark color I’m using #3F1C00 rename that layer “side” and
nudge it 1px down
and 1px left.
8. Duplicate “side” and nudge it 1px down and 1px left,
repeat this
step about 8 times then merge all side layers together.
you should have
something like this:
9. Now merge “side” and your text layer and duplicate 2 times give
the top layer a dropshadow with these settings:
10. Select the middle text layer and give it a dropshadow with default settings.
now you should have something like this:
11. Select the bottom text layer edit > transform > flip
vertical and move it 1px under the original like this:
12. Select the rectangular marque tool selct your side copy 2,
create a new layer, select you background color as the foreground color
and with the
gradiant tool add a gradiant 2x from bottom to top about 3
quarters up like this:
12b: Make sure you have the gradient set to forground to transparent here:
13. Holding the ctrl button select your new layer then select the
bottom text layer and
press delete 3 times ,set the opacity to 40 %
then you can delete the gradient layer.You should have something like
this:
14. Well thats pretty much it,
the rest is up to you, you can either
leave it like it is
or you can continue adding different effects to it
either way I hope I could help put some insight
onhow to get a nice 3d
text effect out of a couple fairly easy steps.
