What version of Photoshop are you using?  Does it have a 3D menu?

[BenSCR]

I'm using Photoshop CC 2017.

It does have a 3D menu and I know how to extrude text. But I'm just wondering how I would make the from of he text say Blue and the extruded part Black.

Hi Ben

You can use the 3D tools in Photoshop.

1st use the type tool to type your word.

With the type layer selected go to Type - Extrude to 3D

In the 3D panel click on the text and in properties adjust the extrusion depth

The front will be the colour you typed for the letters, To colour the extrusion, click on the extrusion material in the 3D panel and in Properties next to Diffuse click the folder and click on New Texture

With the material open - add your colour - I've just used a plain colour. If you want to make a gradient you will need to use the UV guides (those black lines) as a guide.

Save the texture

You may need to adjust the infinite light and the  IBLGlobal Light intensity intensity to balance appearance of the colours

Infinite Light

Image Based Light:

Click on the move tool then use the camera controls to adjust the view

Once happy - use 3D Render 3D layer

Have fun - shout if you get stuck

is it possible to extrude text in substance 3d designer?

At present the model graph in 3D Designer does not have a text node. The only text node is in the material graph. You could use Stager or any other 3D application to extrude your text.
