Anybody know if theres a filter or a tut for this kind of 3d

The big Teen Angels letters anybody know if theres a tut or a filter for that?

I'm pretty sure that it can be done with one of theKeeper's tutorials; http://www.photoshopgurus.info/forum...pic.php?t=3838

and using one of the transform tools.

Grfx@rt is right SickMade. You can get a similar effect. Not an exact one mind you because i'm pretty sute that effect was done with a Vector app, which allows a lot more control over the effect.

Here's a simple run-down of the steps:

1) Create your type. Make it about 30% smaller than you want it to be. Now apply the TYPE WARP function and use the "Arc Lower" filter. Drag the "Bend" slider into the negative side until you reach the effect level you want. Apply the filter.

2) Fill the type with the colour you wish the 3d zoom part to be; or any colour will due. It can be changed later.

3) Apply a 2 pixel Bevel & Emboss, with the light source coming from below & right of the type.

4) Press Ctrl+J. Then Ctrl+T. Right-click in the numeric boxes for the Height and Width and choose "pixels" for the unit. Click the chain link between the Height & Width boxes. Then add 1 pixel to either size attribute. Now click your mouse within the transform box area and tap your up arrow key once. Press ENTER to apply these changes.

5) And now it's all a repeat of step 4. Press Ctrl+J. Then Ctrl+SHIFT+T. (repeats the last transform function used). Repeat pressing Ctrl+J then Ctrl+SHIFT+T. Repeat this procedure until your type is as deep as you'd like it.

6) Click on the 2nd top type layer. Now link together all of the tpye layers below it. Then press Ctrl+E. Set the layer Opacity to about 65%.

7) Change the colour of the top type layer to white and remove the Layer Style it has applied to it.

8) Open the HUE&SAT filter and change the 3d zoom text to whatever colour you like by adjusting the HUE slider.

TIP: The font used in your example creates a much more elaborate looking 3D effect. Try using a similar type font.; basically one with a lot of detail ( serif or script fonts will work best ).
Keep in mind too that while only increasing the type size by 1 pixel... it will take a whole lot of copy layers to make the type as deep as your example image shows. But who cares... you're gonna merge all but 1 of them down to a single layer anyway.

HINT: Try playing with the size, shape and/or rotation of your first duplicate type layer (step 4), before running the transform process on it. It can create a variety of other warping effects.
Also... this will work with Vector shapes too, not just type.

Exactly how the original was done, I'm not sure. I could get something similar in Illustrator in moments with a couple of Plug-ins. I used one of the distortion tools to which is part of the FILTERiT 4.0 package to distort the type into the flat top, curved bottom shape. Then the 3D extrusion was done by Vertigo's Pop Art 2.0. I would have had to manipulate the image in Phtotshop to get the transparency of the 3D extrusion.

Cool thanx Gotta try this out
