Lion lithophane

thingiverse

Photoshop, Blender, Meshmixer, S3D are used. Dimensions are 157mm x 96mm x 3.4mm, with a frame of 6mm. Note: This is a large and detailed stl file that may put some systems or slicers under pressure. It slices best in Cura 3.6+ or S3D. A note on slicing in Simplify3D: Slicing the lithophane in Cura or Slic3rPE is easiest, as there's an extra step in Simplify3D due to the way the lithophanes are created. This is by design to allow additional editing and printing options for more advanced users. If you want to use Simplify3D, just load the lithophane STL into S3D as normal. Click Mesh-Separate Connect Surfaces, then slice as normal. The added bonus of doing this is that you can re-crop the image into the frame if you wish or easily resize or remove the frame altogether. If you don't do the above in S3D, there may be a tiny gap between the frame and the lithophane when you actually slice the model. Check out more on my site: https://www.gadunky.com/
