: Realistic Embossed Effect Anyone please help me how to make the embossed effect as in the image. Is it made by 3D software or photoshop? Thank you in advance!

Well, I gave it a try to see how it's done in under 5 minutes and I came up with this:


Make a background layer and give it a color
Select Type Tool and write a letter (works better if the font weight is bold)
Give that letter a slightly darker tone of the background color
Right click on the text layer -> Blending Options -> Bevel and Embross


In the image below I had the following settings:


Depht 65%
Direction Up
Size 1
Soften 0
Highlight Mode - Color Dodge at 70% white
Shadow Mode - Soft Light at 100% black


Make the same letter but with black color
Flatten it, place it under the first one and move it halfway in the direction of where you want the shadow (mine is bottom-right)
Go to Filter tab -> Blur -> Motion blur and select the direction of the shadow and the distance that best suits your design.
Go to Filter tab -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur and give it a bit of Radius just to make it look better.
Final step: Set the layer's Blending Mode to Soft Light.





It also helps to check the Contour box from under Bevel and Embross in the Blending Options.
Also, Adding a small Inner Shadow will help too.


in this image I used:


15% opacity with Soft Light as Blending Mode
Distance 5
Choke 0
Size 30







PS: In my example I used Lato Ultra Bold at 500pt.


One more thing



If you wanna go completely crazy with it, you can go ahead and add a second shadow, but less opaque, just ass seen on the text effect from your link:



Another thing about this text effect is that the shadow is sharper on the edges, for this just don't do the Gaussion Blur step.

This can easily be made in Photoshop.


Make a new Photoshop file.
Make a background to your liking - there are plenty if you google them.
Write text and rasterize layer.
On the layers panel, set the fill to 0%.
Right-click the text and click Blending Options.
Copy these effects in.


You might need to adjust these effects to your background.
The final result can be found here.




Let me know if you need any more info.
