Here's an eagle painted in PD Pro by Frank Bonacquisti.

If your image is a bit too flat in appearance you could apply some filters for further depth, such as embossing.


Save the image as Jpeg or other supported image formats. Then start Archipelis Designer and load the painted image as texture. In a few seconds you can trace some contours of the eagle's head, and turn it into a 3D shape.
