    Awesome tut dude. I Haven’t really experiemented with the 3D in PS since its first incarnation with CS4 which wasn’t much fun. Looks like it’s come a long way! Good to see the vanishing point filter too. I’ve only really used that for mocking up book covers and stuff

    Thanks – that’s great I have wondered the best way to do this.
    To go a little further, in the above example there’s a big yellow sign middle top that is reflecting in the middle foreground. How might you go about getting that light to affect the 3d object as well?
