How to add color inside 3D text?

[jughead77a]

I'm trying to add color inside 3D text. The only way I know how is to add a new layer and manually add color using the paint brush, but this takes too much time!

Is there another simplier way of achieving this?

Uset Photoshop 3D feature and edit the 3d text different surfaces texture.

Something like this:

1. Use the Magic Wand Tool set to Contiguous and click on the White outside the letters and shift click inside the letter O.

2. Select>Inverse

3. Select>Modify>Contract set to 1 px

4. Add a Color Fill Layer (Layer>New Fill Layer>Solid Color)

5. Change the Layer Blend Mode of the Color Fill layer to Multiply.
