3d design for tshirt

First, we are going to begin with the shooting stars artwork. or create any artwork u like
3D T-Shirt Design
As you have seen us do before, we need to group the artwork so we can make everything easier to move and manipulate.
3D Tee Shirt Design
One of the most important parts of making this t-shirt design effect really pop and happen, is to choose the right colors. Now the colors don’t have to be that particular, they just need to be bright and with a lot of contrast.
3-D Tees
Next we are going to make a copy of the artwork, move it a little bit down and to the left, and then color it a bright pink.
How to Design 3D
We’re going to repeat this step, one more time by copying the artwork, moving it up and to the right, and coloring it bright yellow.
Tee Shirt Designs
We always suggest you play with the artwork a little bit and change the depth until you get it right where you want it. It shouldn’t take a lot for you to be able to get this technique and make it better than we can. :)
