hi so i'd like to carve out in a 3d model of a pill a music album cover art. i've tried doing it with adaptive subD and turning album covers into displacment maps but it didn't work and also now i am trying to trace image in illustrator, convert it to .svg and then boolean with it but my .svg has too many vertices i suppose to work properly. what would be the easiest way to do this?

I think a stencil texture for sculpting would be the best solution. Make the pill, use a multi res and subdivide it a bunch of times. Take the image and use it as a stencil with the default draw brush.
You might have to convert the image to black and white and play with the values

aye, this is what i was going to suggest also. I did this once with a handprint and it turned out okay. other than that I'd suggest using a texture and displacement if the above doesnt work (not talking about actual geometry displacement, rather, shader displacement)

Yeah sometimes it’s a really easy way to get details. I used it for a sword guard and it turned out great. Lots of details without a lot of work

I managed this with a boolean modifier and a text object

thank you a lot, still have to tweak those images but it works much better than previous methods

Glad that I could help. You can refine the effect a bit with the smooth brush

Stencils are good but can sometimes mess with your geometry, I prefer using bump maps for stuff like this
