Learn how to create a 3D blister pack from start to finish in this easy-to-follow video. We will construct the shapes and make them 3D in Adobe Photoshop and finish adding color and textures in Adobe Dimension.
This video is for designers who are unfamiliar with 3D software and looking for a tool to mock up scenes and graphic design. Adobe Dimension is a simpler interface to use and consistent with its series of Illustrator and Photoshop programs versus having to learn a new 3D interface and shortcuts. If you already know how to use a 3D program, then please skip this video. Although rendering in Dimension is improving, you’ll likely get a higher quality rendering from a 3D program.
