Dafydd Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I have a couple of questions about how to make this logo. First of all, how do you make a piece of text bend like that, so that it shapes itself like around a circle, as if you wanted to make a cd? Second, are there any good plugins for making textures on stuff, like, to create an illusion of depth or whatever? Third, how would you go about creating lighting effects? Like there was a light shining from, say, in this case, above? Fourth... how do you make something skew like the black text on the red does - horizontally stretching the top but not the bottom?

vista? Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I For the Teenage Mutant Ninja part, you could have text in a red box which could then be rotated/distorted with the 3D Rotate and Zoom tool. I'm not sure about the "Turtles" part, it could just be a font. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 "Turtles" is indeed a font. Look on dafont.com. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

Dafydd Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 You mean this one? http://www.dafont.com/fr/turtles.font Yeah, it's similar, but it's not the same... but that's not really what I wanted to know - how would you go about making text look like that on your own? Sure a good looking font would be nice to begin with, but what about the way it seems to be set around a circle? How'd you make the Indiana Jones-styled text in your sig, for example?

Dafydd Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Ta-da! The links in that thread are dead. I'll try that Plugin, atwell. Thanks for the tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
