Creating 3D effects in PS is a bit difficult, so, to make an effect like this, we need to use a little Xara 3D. But you can also use Cinema 4D or 3DsMax.

Here, you can also learn a little bit of Xara 3D tips. This tutorial is mainly about the use of layer styles (Layer style) and pen Tool.

Step: 1

We need to make each letter separately in 3D software, and you can use any one of your favorite software (3dsmax,cinema 4d,xara 3D). I'm using Xara, because it's simpler and less time-consuming to produce the same effect than others.

Step: 2

First, I'm going to start making the letter "C". As shown in the following figure or you can change your preferences to other colors or styles. I chose blue for my "C".

(Figure: 01)

Color of choice:

Surface (face): 2e81b1

Text Edge (text Side): 2e81b1

Lamp 1 (Light 1): A1E9F9

Lamp 2 (Light 2): 7495AF

Lamp 3 (Light 3): A1E9F9

(Figure: 02)

The font I use is Angsana New font. Other options such as extrusion (highlighting), Bevel options (bevel option), and Shadow (Shadows) selections are shown in the following illustration.

The shadow will not be used. Rotate the letter until you are satisfied. Render this image "PNG" format so that the "C" letter has no background.
