3D Blend Text Effect in Adobe
Illustrator
Today’s tutorial is a
typography tutorial. In today’s tutorial you will learn to create 3D Blend Text Effect in Adobe
Illustrator. We will be using Rectangle Tool, Type Tool, Blend Tool
and 3D Rotate Effect.
Launch Adobe
Illustrator and create a new document. Now follow the below steps-
Step 1
Select the Rectangle Tool from the Tool
Panel and draw a rectangle to create the background. Fill the rectangle
with color #fbb040.
Select the background rectangle and press Ctrl + 2 to lock the background.
Step 2
Select the Type Tool and type a letter.
Step 3
Select the letter and press Ctrl + C to copy the letter. Now press Ctrl + F to paste the copied letter in the front.
Now select the letter pasted in front and drag
towards right. (See the below image)
Step 4
Now select the letter which is at the back and
change its fill color. Fill the letter with the background color, i.e., #fbb040.
Then select the letter which is in the front and
fill it with color #8f1622.
Now select both the letters and click on Object
in the Menu Bar. Place the cursor on Blend and select Make.
(The second letter which is at the back is not
visible in the above image because its fill color is same as that of the
background.)
Now double click on the Blend Tool in the Tool
Panel to open the Blend Option dialogue box.
In the Blend Option dialogue box, we will increase
the Specified Steps of make a smooth blend.
Check the Preview and click OK.
Step 5
Now select the blend created and click on Effect
in the Menu Bar. Place the cursor on 3D and click on Rotate.
3D Rotate Options
dialogue box will appear on the artboard. In that dialogue box, create a custom
rotation to give a perspective look to the letter.
Check the Preview and click OK.
This is how you can create 3D
Blend Text Effect in Adobe Illustrator.
