Concept layout for an upcoming article. 100% 3D in Photoshop CC.
New document with bump and diffuse textures.
More texture adjustments, slight inflation to the letters, depth of field, tinkering with a desk surface in the background.
Moved the point of focus to the left edge of the "O", but will probably combine this with the previous image to get a more distinctive DoF effect.
Replaced the desktop texture, added an Image Based Light, and repositioned the camera a bit. There is also a non-shadow infinite light to fill some of the text shadows.The final version of this will probably have a different crop, but I think this is 90% of what I want.
I think this is the final version...
