3D text in illustrator tutorial

3D TEXT

Open a new file .



Now select the type tool.

Type the text you want to make 3D.




Now create outline of that text . For this press CTRL + SHIFT + O 
This will convert the text into object.


Ungroup the object .


Select an object .Now go to   Effects --> 3d --> Extrude and Bevel .



A dialogue box will appear . Position the object into the desired direction and click ok .
Do the same with another object.
Now you will see that your text is converted into 3d . 



Then go to Object --> Expand appearance .
Then go to Object --> Ungroup .

                            




Now with  Selection tool fill color (Windows -- > Swatches) in each part. Here I have filled it with Gradient. 


Try filling different color in each part . After filling color in each object  it will look something like this .



Now select both object and go to Object -- > Group 



Your 3D text is created now .


You can can use this in creating logos and other things.
