The video had uploaded on Jul 31, 2015 , and I just watch this in 2019. Thanks, Doug Keeling for the simple and great tutorial you've shared.

THANK YOU! Not only I learne how to do this, but you also teach me a lot of PS tricks and shorcuts that I didn´t know! You rock! ;D

Brilliant - took me a while to get the desired effect, but far more control than the illustrator option! Many thanks!

I think this is a fabulous tutorial! I could get everything done except the color palette I'll figure it out. At almost 70 years old it has to be a good tutorial if I can follow it! Thank you

Guys, instead of doing (CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + T) you can do (CTRL + ALT + UP ARROW + LEFT ARROW)

What an awesome tutorial! Exactly what I was looking for. Beautifully done. Gonna try it out. Thanks for putting it together.

Watching this in 2020!! Thank you for this tutorial, this is exactly what i wanted :D

The reverse arranging trick is mind blowing! Never know I have that in Photoshop!

HOW TO DO STEP AND REPEAT ONTO ANOTHER LAYER IN PHOTOSHOP CS6 (WINDOWS): Before pressing Shift+Contrl+Alt+T go the layer, right click and go to ''Rasterize Layer''( Not to confuse with ''Rasterize Layer Style''). Then just repeat as he says in the video and you'll be fine.

Thank you so much for your time and expertise, much appreciated.

Thanks! Great tutorial, helped me out a lot!

I like your teaching style! I'm trying this with CS4 and although it looks similar, it doesn't give the same effect. I noticed that "transform again" isn't creating new layers. Maybe that's why I'm getting letters that look more like little buildings with their roofs removed. Any thoughts on how to do this with CS4? I did watch your transform again video as well.

You have earned yourself a subscriber for your excellent tutorials!

Amazing thank you so much! super easy to follow!

Incredible tutorial...thanks so much!!

Brilliant! Thx guys! You save my work!

this isn t a easy tutorial but after a few attemps i succeeded and learned a lot - thank you

Great tutorial! I downloaded the PSD, can you tell me how I change the name and how I write something else instead?

Respect to your good work, thanks a lot

Is that complex to film the entire screen ?

This is wonderful. Thanks!

This tutorial was amazing! Thank you very much! :)

AMAZING! THANK YOU FOR THIS! HUGS FROM BRAZIL!

Excellent tutorial! Thank you!

Great job! Very Useful !

is there a difference doing this in cs4 mine is not coming out right

I've been trying to figure out what i've been doing wrong - turns out if you do the transform again with a smart object it won't work. I just ended up doing it straight in photoshop with the shapes like the authors has done.

I was good up until the color palette.How do you make one? And I was doing so good haha!!

For those of you having issues with the Transform another layer aspect do the following: right click the duplicated layer, *** Click Rasterize Layer ***, now transpose, move up and one click to the left - follow the instructions as described. You will see this helps the text duplicate each layer and work as described!

FYI to future generations: The name of the font used is "raleway.ttf" NOT "railway.ttf." Both are on Font Squirrel. It took me awhile to catch on to this factoid.

Its very good! Working! Thanks

It won't let me select the anchor point on the right side which in turn is not giving the desired effect on the direction of the 3D. I have googled it but no luck finding out why I cannot choose the anchor points.

Don't know which version of PS you're using, but all this also works in CS5. The "Opt" key on Mac is the equivalent of "Alt" on PC. Thanks for the tut.

Got it ! figured out how to get the color palette on there!!

awesome. i am inspired

HI thnks for this tutorial..it helps a lot..it did not turn out exactly beautiful like urs but i work around and adjust it the way i know and voila hehe it looks less and more like what u trying to achieve..overall i quite satisfied..mine at least still have the superman style...thnks!

Grazie! Super Fantastico!

really good tutorial (respect from belgium)

Question, how do you get the files into photoshop. Thats the onl thing im confused

5:44 my text looks very different after pressing inner bevel. I have the exact same options pressed in that section and down the side, but it still has a weird 3D pointy shape

Thanks a lot pal, great help.

Thanks for the toturial!

Around 9:09 shift, control, alt, t isn't duplicating layers, only the image with applied style to the same layer. Not leaving a bevel. Help?

Do we edit the text you already created or is the PSD just so you can show us the final product?

thank you very much!

Amazing and Awesome Video.... From Brazil.

thank you so much man, subbed

This helped me so much

Wow that was ingenious

Badass!! Really helped me out. Thanks buddy!

Great tutorial!

very nice totorial, but when ever i merge the layers together, the look like many layers of paper, not like in your case like one body

Awesome video, thanks! How do you create the dotted pop art effect (seen at 0:11)?

Why does the GMS tNice tutorialng doesn't soft sa way like it did in the video?

DOPE.. USED FOR OTHER TEXT... SUBBED!

im a beginner, so why when i press ctrl+shift+alt+t, my thing look different, theres no copy 1 copy 2 and so on,

Can't thank you enough!

why when i changed the color of the 3d the background also changes??

hey @Doug Keeling great tutorial..thank you....is it possible to just edit the text layer from your .psd download and then have the entire file update?

With the step at 9:03 (CMD + SHIFT + OPT + T), what is the commands for PC? Because i cant seem to get it :(

Hi...I am using a PC and having trouble with "Transform Again" to get the "Extruding" effect of the text. I did change to the move tool and path selection tool with no success. I am using Control + Shift + Alt + T but the layers do no duplicate...instead the text duplicates not creating the effect. Is there something I am missing since I am using a PC?

love it

great tutorial

Thank you very much

Wow! Thanks!

cool you have tricks and technic i dont have. but it looks easier if you create 3d text with coraldraw

Amazing tutorial!

Adorei! like!

Hi. The supertext.psd is off

Excelent video. Thank you

¡Excelente Tutorial Amigo!

Had a problem with my Levels layer any help? Seems to not be taking shape

I got new technigues thanks

Can someone help me, every time I pick the move tool it only does that effect to the shape layer and I can't seem to get it off the shape layer

If your image isn't making multiple copies when you do 'CMD+Shift+Opt+T', then right click on your text layer and click 'Convert to smart object'

when I hit CTRl+shift+alt+T it only add copy's of my mask on the same layer, no new layers

What about the halftones in your final?

I have PS CS6 and I did step by step everything you said (I swear it, I'm pretty sure) but the text came out different than yours. What went wrong, dude? Please, help me. I want to create that same style text but using the word "SEVERICH"... Could you do it for me. I couldn't do it. Please!

I keep coming back to those basics videos because I STILL don't know how to properly use the software. I'm gonna cry

My beveling isn't copying with each new later that I created . . . or it appears not to be . . . I don't see the definition like yours has. When I did the Transform Again, although a new layer showed up on my artwork, it did not appear to the right in the window that shows all of my layers. Weird. Maybe that has something to do with the beveling not appearing on the new layers?

My mistake, actually works perfect, it was just I did something wrong and then started all over gain. Thank You.

Unbelievable sorcery!

I REALLY struggled with this tut. I mean BIG TIME and it was namely due to that whole "transform onto another layer" Which just did not work and I had to keep clicking out of the "shape box" in fact your icon looked more like a "smart object whereas mine was two boxes with the link chain in the middle. I am using CS5. I got around it by using the suggestion from Eve Novak below but the only thing I'd say about that is that you need to do the nudging THEN duplicate the layer or you will just be doing the same thing over and over and won't get the extrude. I also found that doing the bevel from below worked better too as reversing the layers and the levels didn't do too much. It was also best to have the extrude in the colour you wanted first. My last tip is to save a version of the text layer so if it goes belly up you don't have to keep starting again. I got there in the end though and the way I did the retro look on mine was copying the text and adding a half tone effect to it then lowering the opacity so it showed the grain over the letters but I could still see the shading. I did the shading with the burn tool.

Thanks for this tutorial and thanks for the files!! Heads up, your website only has a download to the Raleway font in THIN, not EXTRA BOLD. I found it online elsewhere though :)

New tutorial clarifying 'Transform again is up! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZpji5mYzdK4gZ8.html

Okay, no matter how many times I try this, I canNOT change the text color. Whole dang thing turns yellow.

help when i merge it it becomes full gray and the bezzle are outside

11:41 CMD-E Loses all the shadow texture of the "3d" layer

When I cmd + shift + opt + T I don't get another layer, but it does "transform again." help!

i had troubles when you change the color to grey....didn't understand the delete option. It would be nice to see the whole screen. anybody can help me? pleaseee!!! sorry for my english :D

GOOD NEWS for CS4 users... You can use this tutorial with one added step! All you need to do (in addition to all the instructions in this tutorial) is create duplicate layers and use the arrow keys to move each layer one pixel up and one pixel left (transform again doesn't work for this effect in CS4). 20 layers is all it takes to create a great effect. Next question: Doug, do you have a tutorial for creating the authentic comic book effect (dots and texture) you threw in at the end?

can u make one for me with a different name?

Why don`t make an action?

for peoples that watching this After 2020 or People having truble Duplicating shortcuts not working properly do this.! in some versions of photoshop Ctrl + Shift + Alt + T shortcut dose'nt work anymore. instad of doing that, do Shift + Alt + UP ARROW & LEFT ARROW. one layer at a time

the "cmd + shift + opt + T" thing doesnt workk helppp

i cant get the 3D shadow right :(((

Amazing tutorial. However, that transform/duplicate problem (I also watched your resolution video) forced me to spend 2 hours trying to make it work :D I arrived at a conclusion that its probably the photoshop version issue. So, I ended up doing all the transform/copying manually... 50 times... :D Anyway, golden tutorial. Thanks!

lov u

hard tutorial but good, thanks

I really thought I was the only one. Like I was buggin'.
