What I did was I separated each layer of the carving into different pieces in MS Paint, and then stacked them on top of each other in Photoshop. That allowed me to make a realistic 3D looking carving with Bevel and Emboss, and texture.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
