most likely done in a 3D program, then edited a little in Photoshop.

That interface was definitely done with a 3D program, but it’s still possible to create something close to that interface with PS. It would require some work, but here’s a chrome tutorial you can use. Just create whatever shape you want and then apply this chrome tutorial to it.

I haven’t seen a totorial on how to make a interface in any 3D program. You’ll have to learn by trial and error.

yeah I agree trial and error. In plasma I believe they have a tut in their help files for a 3d interface. What you basically wanna know how to do is organic modelling or poly modelling those are the ways I would go about it…big push for 3d interfaes lately. Is there something I dont know about???

i like the simple and miniml interfaces. :sigh: but whatever, i think its just another crazy trend.

But yeah thats gotta be in a 3d app. But they have mad skills so i wouldnt be surpised to hear PS, but i think its a 3d app.
