What I did with mine to give the packs a 3D look, was use sharp wood chisels, one wide one to do the horizontal joints and a narrow blade for some of the verticals as appropriate. Some of the ones that were built up in sections came apart a bit, but were easy to glue down again. Then I coated the faces and tops with thinned white glue to seal them, let that dry and finished them in spray clear gloss (Rustoleum). You could probably use a gloss medium, do both jobs together. Made them look more like plastic covers.
