The Wool and the Floss just posted a short video with a tip from Paige of Blue Ridge Stitchery on how to create the illusion of depth with needlepoint stitches and threads.
Basically, use larger stitches and thicker threads at the bottom (or in front), then gradually use a smaller scale stitch and less thread (often with open stitches) as you work your way to the top (or background).
