Can anyone point me in the direction or teach me how to make this? I want to learn to do it with my own images.

  • You have a couple of options.

    Make my lithophane and the new Chroma Canvas on MakerLab arr probably the easiest ones.

    Hueforge is another.

  • Looks like it’s made with a cnc router.

    I create the same type of images at work with the shop cnc. The material is coloured hpl with a black core. An engraving router bit is used to create the black streaks. I use an ancient program called Halftoner to convert photos to a b&w bitmap or vector file. Then Vectric Aspire gets used to create the cnc program. However, you could probably use the halftoner file to use in your slicer.

  • Is this a lithophane? There a free apps that do the conversion

    This doesn’t look as a lithophane to me.

    It looks like the first layer or so is black and the top white
