Now grab your Eraser ( Press E | brush size at around 5-8px; must be smaller than your brush tool, hardness at 100% and spacing at 1%) and start erasing ( in a curved motion, make S shapes etc) until they start looking like drips. I recommend occasionally changing the brush size.

I also added drips around the text. And to make it look 3D, select the drip, fx > Bevel and Emboss:

Once you're done, repeat with the other text layers. Take your time doing this step; don't just erase randomly. I zoomed in the whole canvas to around 300-400% and had a Navigator tab open so I can see how the whole canvas looks like while I was working. * Right click > Copy Layer Effect | Right Click > Paste Layer Effect is really useful.
