This 3D logo mockup is a quick way to show a brand mark reveal without a photo shoot.
Good pick for branding studios, freelancers on Behance or anyone putting together a portfolio. Single-colour versions of a logo usually look better in embossed or foil effects than full-colour ones.
Logo reveals like this are usually the first image in a branding case study, so it’s worth getting the material right.
Use it for
- A brand mark reveal
- A new logo
- A signage concept

What’s inside the 3D Logo Mockup PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Your design, placed through the smart object
- Paper texture you can turn up or down
- Paper or background colour
- Shadows and highlights on their own layers
How to edit this 3D Logo Mockup in Photoshop
- Export your artwork as a high-resolution PNG or JPG, around 300 ppi at print size.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Turn the texture layer up or down to match the paper you’ll print on.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
One more thing: use CMYK-friendly colours in the artwork itself, even though the mockup is RGB, so what the client sees is close to print.
Where the 3D Logo Mockup works best
- Make two or three colour versions of a brand mark reveal and let the client pick.
- Use it as the cover image for a new logo in your portfolio.
- Show a signage concept on your online shop or product page.

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Designbolts. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
Does the effect work with any logo?
Effects like foil, emboss or 3D are applied through layer styles, so any logo placed in the smart object gets them. Thin lines and tiny text may lose detail, so test a simplified version too.
