About this design

Christ lifts his eyes upward, the crown of thorns pressed against his brow, and a soft radiance breaking out from his chest where a small figure stands wreathed in light. There is real ache and hope in this face. Carved in good walnut or maple, the play of deep shadow across the cheekbones and beard makes the whole panel feel alive, like something pulled out of the grain rather than cut into it. This is a high-detail bas-relief STL built for clean machining. The sculpt holds tight contour around the eyes, the wrapped thorns, and the rough broken-stone border framing the scene, so your toolpaths stay crisp from the high points down into the recessed heart below. It is ready for Aspire, VCarve Pro, ArtCAM, and Carveco, and it runs well on a CNC router, a laser engraver using a height-map workflow, or a resin 3D printer for cast and painted pieces. For wood, rough it out with a 6mm end mill at 40 percent stepover, then come back with a 3mm ball nose at 10 percent stepover to pull the fine facial detail and the texture in the beard and border. Scale it for a small devotional plaque or a full wall panel for a chapel. This is an instant digital download, and commercial use is included, so carve it for your own walls, sell finished panels at your booth, or make a heartfelt gift for someone who keeps faith close. Add it to your cart, open the file, and start cutting today.

Have a laser too?

Burn this design, or burn onto it

Laser Studio opens this STL with zero conversion and turns them into a ready-to-burn 3D-illusion engrave. Carving on your CNC instead? CNC Match lines up a name, a date or shading on a photo of the finished piece, so the laser burns right onto the carving.
