Step 1:

Lets start out by creating a new file. I used a 900?500 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with black color. Now make a new layer set and name it '3D Text Design'.

Select the Horizontal Type Tool then set the font family to Verdana, regular, 120 pt, smooth and #0DBC6B color shade. In a new text layer type your name on the center of the canvas.

Step 2:

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow, Inner Glow and Satin blending options to your green text layer.

Step 3:

Duplicate your green text layer design and create a new layer, merge both layers so the text layer turns into a regular layer. Now on your Layers Window put this layer behind the text layer and then nudge it down on the canvas.

Step 5:

On your Layers Window highlight the '3D Text Design' layer set then go to Layers > Merge Layer Set, this should turn the layer set into a regular layer. Now under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Glow and Pattern Overlay blending options to the regular layer.

Step 6:

Duplicate the regular layer with the text design and nudge it down to create a 3D look.Then under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Glow blending option.

Step 9:

Duplicate your first bubble like shape design from step 8 and resize it through Edit > Transform > Scale. Then set the layer's opacity level to 100% and position it as shown below.

Step 10:

Now add more small bubbles, make some bubbles transparent by setting the opacity level of the layer.

Step 11:

Once you have a toxic waste pattern decorate your 3D text with it, use the Transform settings through Edit to make each toxic design unique.
