In this video tutorial we’re going to introduce you to some of the powerful 3D tools in Photoshop – and if you think that techniques such as 3D extrusion sound terribly complicated and intimidating, don’t worry, it’s all really quite simple, and we’ll demystify the subject for you. We’ll start by extruding some text into a 3D shape. We’ll then manipulate the shape in all kinds of ways to customise the 3D effect, before adding lighting, colours and textures to give our shapes the quality of real-world materials.
