I’ll start by saying that the text in this image, and its 3D treatment were not done in Inkscape, but in a free (but not open source) version of the application called SketchUp, owned by Google, and used to build really wonderful things in three dimensions. After making the text there, I imported the exported picture from SketchUp into Inkscape, did a bitmap trace, and then used the fill tool to color the image. A fun workflow, though next time, I think I’ll use Blender, an open source 3d modeling tool.
