Add Any Face to Mount Rushmore in Photoshop (AI + Generative Fill Tutorial)
In this Photoshop tutorial, I show you the best way to add any face onto Mount Rushmore and transform it into a realistic granite sculpture that matches the existing monument.
Using Photoshop’s AI tools, including Generative Fill and the Gemini 3 model, we’ll convert a normal portrait into a stone-carved head that blends seamlessly into the mountain cliff with the correct lighting, texture, and contrast.
You’ll learn how to:
• Isolate a face using Select Subject
• Place and scale the head onto Mount Rushmore
• Use AI Generative Fill with a custom prompt to sculpt the face into granite
• Match tones using Levels and layer masks
• Sharpen the final image using AI Sharpen with Topaz integration
I also provide a Mount Rushmore image with extra space added so you can easily place your own carved head onto the monument.
This technique works for portraits of friends, family, celebrities, or historical figures and produces surprisingly realistic results.
