Create Super Glossy 3D Type

Create Super Glossy 3D Type
In today’s tutorial we will demonstrate how to create super glossy 3D typography using Illustrator and Photoshop. Let’s get started! Open Illustrator and create a new RGB document, 1000px by 800px, 72 DPI, and write your text in a nice big font. I've used Marketing Script size 234pt. Next, with you text selected, go to Object > Expand, and hit ok on the pop up window. Currently, our letters are separate objects grouped together, we want them to be one single compound path. With the Pen Tool (P) selected, draw a new path starting from the last flick of the last letter s, and swirling its way down underneath our type. Change the Stroke Weight of our new path to a size that matches the width of the text path that it will be joining. Duplicate this path by dragging the Group's thumbnail (in the layers palette) to the New Layer button. With the Direct Selection Tool (A) select the two bottom-right Anchor Points of our path, hit Delete and name this group "swirl 1".

Papercraft Text Effect Wired Magazine introduced on the September 2008 issue a new headline design created by Mario Hugo. This cool headline design struck me with its beauty and simplicity. So I decided to turn this effect into a Photoshop tutorial. Although the effect is a bit different, all credit should be given to Mario Hugo. Since he designed a custom typeface for these headlines, I had to find some similar typefaces to apply this effect. The first and obvious choice was the popular Baby Teeth font. As usual, my tutorials are very long. Futuristic, Grungy Metal Text Effect in Photoshop In today’s quick tip tutorial, we will demonstrate how to create a futuristic, grungy, text effect with lots of scratches and fancy neon lights. Let’s get started! Step 1 Create a new document with any desired size, in this case I made the document 1920px wide and 1080px high at a resolution of 300ppi. Next, change the background color to #272727. Step 2 To get the scratched concrete look, I used a set of scratch brushes found here. Step 3 Let's get started with the text. Step 4 Next, apply these layer styles. Step 5 Now we add the scratches on the metal. Create a new layer and call it "Metal Scratches". After you've done that, keep the layer selected and Cmd/Ctrl + Click the Text layer to place a marquee around it. Step 6 After you’ve created the metal scratches and are satisfied with the overall look, let's start with the removal of the excess scratches. Tip: Make sure you only Touch the highlights, as we still want a little of the scratches to show in those areas. Step 7 Step 8 Step 9 Step 10
