Thanks for this great tutorial! I was wondering if this is to be done the same for a mockup box. Do I still use a rectangular shape artwork (my box artwork is die cut to the actual folds of the box)? If possible, I would really love a simple tutorial for box mock up. Sorry, I’m kinda slow!

@Renae, I was having the same issue, but you must remember with 3D that a hollow bottle has half of the surfaces on the inside. I was selecting what I thought was the outside surface and it was actually the inside of the bottle. Once I chose the outside it worked!

I hope this helps!

Hi Guys,

Great tut. Thank you… I followed it step by ste and getting the same as Sid a solid black, or whatever color you use cylinder instead of a 3D bottle shape. Giving an error, “Path self-insertion may have occured”. What causes this?

I went thru the whole tutorial, but at the end, when I was trying to implement this ” You will need to find the relevant surface you want your label artwork to be mapped onto. Once you find it select the label symbol from the drop down and position into place- Press ok. Nothing shows up on my 3D image at all. I have gone thru it 3x. Any suggestions?

@Diana Hernandez – yes you can do this with any size label once you get to grips with how it works…

@Niranjan – we assume you are speaking of creating x2 3D objects? It’s best to do one at a time in illustrator. If you need to do more then maybe a more advanced 3D package might be worth purchasing like Cinema 4D.

@sid – not sure what could have gone wrong to be honest sid. The shape itself isn’t actually coloured black is it? Be sure to also have a play with the lighting – try switching it off completely or try the wireframe option to see if those work…

Thanks for share your great idea.
As per your direction I have created linear 2 shapes as you shown in your image.

But after getting not exact an idea how to play with 2 linear form?

Is I have to mix each other or what?
If possible please, please explain in detail after it.

Thanks for everything!

Warm Regards,
Niranjan Gohane
