In adobe photoshop, is it possible to take and wrap a 2D texture onto a 3D model? And is it also possible to make a 2D object from a photo into a 3D one?

If I wanted to add someone's tattoos onto a character in the video game Skyrim, how would I go about doing that?

Skyrim has a HUGE modding community.
