You can use ofn-bend-path for the bulging and 'Generate envelope of two paths' (ofn-paths-envelope) for the 3D effect.
Its still not really an easy way to make extruded text. You must work with vanishing points like i did here, and the shading is hard to do with Gimp's gradient tool.
G'MIC has a filter for 3D extrusion (under Rendering) but its rather crude.
The easiest way to get really good results with realistic lighting is probably using Blender, but the learning curve is steep.
