    I need to tell you, just make the basic shape in illustrator with extrude and bevel. Them apply you map work in Photoshop!!!

    Even after 10 years extrude and bevel still a buggy tool... :\

    If the top and the bottom it's a polygon you can.

    Like monica says you can make it the Extrude and bevel plugin from illustrator

    Here you can find the step to do it

    Special attention for the topic of the custom bevel that you will  need.

    You could try and use your own extrusion profile with 3D extrude and bevel.

    Thank you for the help, I used half of 6-side polygon to created the 3D under Revolve command, it came out like this so far, I am not really happy with this. Can anyone help me to get a better result? or I have to Sketch Up...>_<
