True, it can take ages but the result is better than Inkscape.

I can not see much 3D effect in the example. You can get a 3D effect by multiplying and stroking paths
However for the 'flat' text
1. The 'bowed' text, in Gimp the warp-text script works http://chiselapp.com/user/saulgoode/repo...-warp-text
Make your text, make a suitable 4 point path, set the script going, wait forever while it works.
result looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/YZo9MIG.jpg
2. Rotated text. Make the text, Put text-to-path. Move and rotate that path. The only thing to look out for is the correct mode for both move and rotate. looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/C87iSQO.jpg
3. Text on a path. Make the text. Size a suitable path. Move as required. Apply Text along path. https://i.imgur.com/nh2Gxp3.jpg
Make a new layer for the text. Put each path to a selection, fill the selection. https://i.imgur.com/7JvOMUF.jpg
Up to you to make the decorations on a layer under filled paths.
