3D Text

3D TextIt can be as simple as you like, or as hardest. Never give up. Give a lil' try to always incorporates something old and something modern to your insane amazing design.

Like I said very often... Don’t produce art just for the heaven's sake of art, lmao.

So here are the steps...

1. Open New Document and fill it with #7a7a7a.
2. Type something with the #FFFFFF for color.
3. Place it on center of your workflow by pressing Ctrl + A, then activate the Align Vertical Center and Align Horizontal Center.

4. Press Ctrl + T to resize the text like this...

5. Still with the FCDB selected, from your palette layer, press Ctrl + J to duplicate it.

Listen to this carefully... after you copy the FCDB, FCDB copy appears just above the FCDB original layer isn't it?!? Remain calm.. ignore it, lol.. I mean, you should do select the FCDB layer again then switch your tool into the Move Tool (V). From your PC, click once the Down Arrow and once the Left Arrow. Got that?!?!?


This picture taken after I absolutely turn the Layer Opacity of the FCDB copied layer down in about 35%.

Do that (step 5 - select the FCDB layer again then switch your tool into the Move Tool (V). From your PC, click once the Down Arrow and once the Left Arrow) several times until you satisfied or at least you can see my text layer now..

6. Back to the top of your text layer, which is FCDB copy in my work, I don't know about you.. lmao... Activate that layer (FCDB copied on the very TOP of layer). Right + Click, then choose Blending Option with this parameter..
