Concept

Carved Realms is a LoRA that transforms every image into a world preserved in wood. Miniature universes carved into the open pages of standing tomes.
Each scene feels like a myth trapped in timber, where landscapes, temples, gods, or cities are sculpted within the book’s heart, glowing softly from their engraved depths.

This LoRA captures the poetry of craftsmanship and imagination. Not painting, not photography, but wood turned into memory.
The carvings are alive: rivers glisten with inlaid silver, suns radiate from etched grain, and mountains rise from pages polished smooth by time.
Every book becomes a relic from a forgotten civilization that recorded its myths not in ink, but in wood and light.

It’s fantasy seen through the eyes of a sculptor: stories made tangible, each one breathing beneath a layer of carved texture and luminous patina.

Visual Identity

Carved Realms combines photorealistic lighting with meticulous handcrafted detail, producing images that look half sculpture, half dream.
Wood grain replaces brushstrokes, while light and shadow define entire landscapes across a single carved surface.

Scenes are always framed within upright or leaning tomes. The book itself standing like a gate between worlds.
Within those pages unfold mountain valleys, cathedrals, dragons, phoenixes, and mythical figures. All carved in layered relief, sometimes highlighted with glowing metal veins of gold, copper, or silver.

Textures are deeply tactile: polished wood, smooth ridges, chisel marks, dust motes catching backlight.
The palette often moves between warm amber, antique gold, deep walnut brown, pale maple glow, and moonlit silver, creating a timeless, sculptural aesthetic.

The light behaves like memory: gentle, reverent, illuminating the carved story without ever breaking its illusion.

Mood and Atmosphere

Quiet awe.
A balance between realism and reverence scenes that feel handcrafted by ancient hands, yet touched by divine light.
Every carved world seems to hum with unseen life, as though the wood still remembers the moment it was shaped.

The mood is calm, timeless, and contemplative. Inviting the viewer to look closer, to read the story not in words, but in texture.
Even the grandest myths feel intimate when carved in a single block of wood.

It’s not about destruction or decay. It’s about preservation.
A memory made permanent. A world captured forever between the pages.
