Make a rusty abandoned text logo effect

This tutorial gives you the tips and tricks to create a realistic old text effect that is perfect to produce an abandoned mood or something like that.

To create such effect by yourself, open this free 3D rusty text effect generator and set up its parameters as explained (you don't need to change the shadow elements):
- 3D text style: 6th option;
- Text: abandoned (enter your text);
- Font size: Big;
- Margin: 4;
- Background color: 402000;
- Get as a transparent PNG file: unchecked;
- Font name: Jerk.

The previous configuration creates the cool text logo you can see here (click the image to see it in real size):

Extra tips:
- you can create this text effect with an anti-aliased transparent background (check the "Get as a transparent PNG file" box);
- this text effect generator is very powerful and can work well with most font faces, but you could like to select a font that looks to have a damaged shape, so it could improve the old/abandoned appearance;
- create endless top quality text logos by using the best online text effect design apps.
