It's a normalmap, it dosn't change the geometry, it only displaces the face normals differently so it looks like it changes the geometry, and don't you think it looks like it does? the 3rd and 4th pic is the same model.

I have unwrapped the model, and used a highpoly model to bake a normalmap with the uv coordinations of the low poly model.

The background is just a pic of a scanned paper I found online.

Thanks for all your comments
