You’ll now have a new vector path of the selection.


Step 15

Go to 3D > Repoussé > Selected Path. You’ll need Photoshop Extended (not the regular version) to get access to this menu. The 3D Object Rotate Tool should already be selected. Just click and drag in the document window to rotate the Diagonal bars like shown in the image below.

Set the Lights to CAD Optimized then adjust the Depth to reduce the thickness so that you get something like the next image below.

Here’s what the diagonal bars look like after applying the settings above.


Step 16

Go to Layer > Layer Style > Gradient Overlay. Set the Blend Mode to Overlay, Gradient to Spectrum, and Scale to 150%. Don’t click OK yet.

Adjust the Angle setting so that your gradient is aligned with the direction of the diagonal bars like shown in the image below.

Click and drag directly on the image to reposition the gradient so that your gradient goes from blue to pink.

Click on the Color Overlay option to enable it. Set the Blend Mode to Overlay and color to pink (#FF7F7F). Click OK to apply the changes.


Step 17

Now we’re going to rasterize the 3D object to speed up Photoshop’s performance for the edits we’ll be doing next. Before we rasterize the layer, set the render quality to Ray Traced Final. You can do this by going to Window > 3D to bring up the 3D palette then changing the Quality to Ray Traced Final. This will improve the edges of the 3D.

You’ll see a blue grid scanning across the image. This is Photoshoph rendering the 3D scene and may take a few minutes or more before it starts to look good. You can stop it when it looks fine enough for you. If you click or do anything inside Photoshop while it is rendering, the rendering will pause. To resume it, just go to 3D > Resume Progressive Render.

After rendering, your 3D object should have sharp lines and smooth shading like this:

Go to 3D > Rasterize to rasterize the layer then, in the Layers palette, move the layer below the girl.


Step 18

Press Ctrl+G or Command+G on a Mac. This will put the current layer into a group. While holding down the Alt or Option key on a Mac, click and drag like shown in the video below to duplicate and reposition the 3D diagonal bars.
