Sketchup gives you basic 3D with a very small learning curve compared to other 3D apps.

The reason is this: It's much easier to use a 3D program for 3D text versus by hand using Photoshop. However, learning a 3D program can take a while as well, and if you're just going to use it for 3D text occasionally, then the cost of the software and the time to learn makes it a not-so-good choice. Here's my suggestion: check out the tutorials I linked to in the post. The first one uses 3D software and Photoshop, the second one uses Photoshop (almost literally by hand because it asks you to create a real-world model), and the 3rd one uses Illustrator. Those should give you some insight on the processes of making 3D typography using the three scenarios you mentioned. This is a tough question to answer.

My favorite is the Helvetica architectural one. I really want to start working with 3D text more. It has been kind of a scary thing for me, I almost always use flat text. Do you suggest creating the text shapes by hand with elite Photoshop skills? Using Illustrator's 3D tools? Or is working with an actual 3D program ideal? Awesome.
