Photoshop Tutorials - How to make 3D text

[@fotolends]

Now that's EXACTLY the way to present a PS tutorial. Many others who make such videos, please take note! Precise, concise and easy to follow at a sensible pace! Thank you!

[@wr5023]

Activated my comments just to say that that noise to cancel the weird texture in the gradient is gooooold! thank you so much!

[@lamarjesus]

I know tNice tutorials is an old video but I’m new and thank god I finally found you . Thank you for such an amazing and helpful video ❤️

[@jimleggett9081]

This was a great video, except when you got to the actual technique you used to create the shadowing effect, you said it would be boring to see how to do it. Boring or not, your technique makes the font look realistic. I would have preferred to be shown a tedious technique to get an amazing effect, instead of just a file to make the shadow technique for me. What I don't know is: what angles did you use? What Gaussian settings did you use? How many layers does it take to make the effect? You handed me a fish instead of teaching me to fish. I'm not ungrateful for the fish, but the knowledge of how to catch it myself was what I was seeking.

[@joshaceves122]

If you look in the file apply the shadows to your text you can see each effect layer and its settings.

[@warvdine4470]

@@joshaceves122 I actually used this as my time to practice feeling it out for myself. I have a set color for my font, so I changed the shadow to be the same color but much much darker(almost black). I then added the Gaussian blur(the same blur for each layer) and self-moved each layer into place. It's good to have tutorials like this, but you also want to be able to teach yourself how to catch a fish even if you haven't seen it done before. Might not be perfect the first time, but it gets better with practice '' '

Cheers everyone! :)

[@josephgamer7342]

Made by Mighty Hey what is the font of the video

[@MadebyMighty]

Hi Joseph, unfortunately the logo is custom lettering so it's not a font. However, there are some fonts that are in the same style out there. The ones I use I had to purchase but I'm sure you can find free fonts in a similar style. I hope this helps. Cheers!

[@MadebyMighty]

Thank you! :) Yeah so you can use different colours instead of the variations of grey for sure. Just keep in mind that your shadows and highlights should be coloured as well and not just black / white. For instance, If you have an orange background make sure your shadows have a bit of dark orange maybe some red in them and that your highlights have some light orange and maybe a bit of yellow in them. This will make for a more realistic look. The is the dosage of colours try and experiment a bit with them. I hope this helps! Cheers!

[@MrRandom26]

Made by Mighty Hey, I have a question about the drop shadow. I'm interested in your file but I'd like to try it myself first, so the text should be nudged up to make one angle, and every time the guassian blur should be changed and then a new text should be added until there are 20 separate layers?

[@MadebyMighty]

Yeah, for the shadow I would nudge it down and left keeping the same angle every time (if your light source is coming from the top right like in the video). And then gradually increase the blur value and reduce the opacity. It's a bit hard to explain in a comment but I hope you get the idea :) Let me know if you need better explanations. Cheers!

[@xihe2642]

Hi! This is so awesome, quick question, If I wanna do a dark version of 3D text like this, is there a quick way to flip the color?

[@mayamccray7805]

Hey mighty! This is the 2nd tutorial from you that I have watched and their easy to follow and great edit techniques to use. I did have the same question for this and another. For some reason my holding SHIFT and pressing down and left doesn't allow me to 'nudge' and I am working on a PC, any thoughts on this?

[@MadebyMighty]

Thank you for your feedback! 😊 If you just move your layer by pressing the arrow keys (without holding Shift) does that work? It will move 1px at a time so it won't too obvious but if you press it a few times, does it move? I'll try and figure out why it's not working. Cheers!

[@peteharrison3241]

Thanks for a great tutorial, although I never managed to quite reach the same effect. Is there a way to achieve a similar result but with the shadow inside so it looks like 3d text cut into the layer background colour, maybe showing another layer below?

[@TheeKelsdo241]

Great style and effect! Suggestion: can you please explain in more details why you choose to create specific effect? Like why "bevel and emboss" and why "145 degree". How these will build up to the final look? Thanks a lot!

[@MadebyMighty]

Thanks for you feedback, I think you make a great point. I'll definitely focus more on explaining why instead of just giving out values. I'll explain what each layer style option does and why I chose certain values. For instance here I wanted to have the light coming for the upper right corner so throughout the tutorial I believe I used 145 degree (or close to) so the light and shadow always follow the same direction. I'll make sure I cover the reasoning for things like that in future videos. Thanks again for your suggestion, cheers!
