A recognizable and stylish logo is a guarantee that your project or website will be noticeable among others, and people will recognize it and associate the logo with your corporate identity. A volumetric logo drawn in 3D in compliance with all the stylistic features of your project will become an excellent element of your personal and professional image.
Instructions
Step 1
In Photoshop, create a new file of 460x438 pixels. Fill the document with any color using the Fill tool. Click on the background layer and select the Blending Options option in the layers panel. In the window that opens, select the Fradient Overlay tab and set the desired color transition. Click OK to create a beautiful background for your logo.
Step 2
Now select the text (T) from the toolbar and set any font with a fairly simple and stylish texture. Write the combination of letters you want in the logo and then set the Opacity to 85%.
Step 3
Open the Blending Options section again and select the Inner Shadow tab. Set the opacity to 75% and then open the Inner Glow tab and set the same opacity setting. Adjust the linear gradient on the letters in the Gradient Overlay tab and then open the Stroke tab and set the stroke to 1 pixel white, with the position of Outside. Click OK.
Step 4
Now that your letter is almost ready, duplicate the letter layer, and then move it a little to the right and down, so that one letter is visible from behind the other. Connect the vertices of both letters with white lines using the Line Tool on the toolbar. After that, Ctrl-click on the front layer and press Alt, and then click on the back side of the letter.
Step 5
Select the entire letter while holding down the Shift key, and then create a new layer between the two layers with the back and front of the letter. Fill the selection with any color. To a new layer apply all the effects that you applied to the letter layers using the Copy Layer Style> Paste Layer Style option. After creating the left side of the logo, create the right side in the same way.
Step 6
After the 3D letter is ready, finalize the logo - draw a reflection of the letter. Turn off the background layer and copy the artboard. Flip the letter vertically using the Flip Vertical option on the Edit menu. Apply a 5px Gaussian Blur to the reflection.
Step 7
Using any nice brush, paint an ornament around the letter and reflection. Complete it with any visual effects, add highlights with the appropriate brushes, and your logo is ready.
