select this box and then press the face edit tool on the toolbar.

Click the displacement tab at the top.

Now click the Create button and a small menu will appear, change the power to 4

Click OK. Your brush will now look like a grid. Now click on the Paint Geometry button. A new menu will appear. Move your cursor over the brush, there will be a green sphere.

Click on the brush to make it raise, or if you want the brush to have a dent in it then right click the brush.

Make sure you experiment with the options like the axis, the distance bar at the bottom and the Distance bar.
