The Walking Dead / Daryl Dixon lithophane

Software used:
Photoshop, Blender, Meshmixer, S3D to add the frame and sliced in Cura 3.6

Thingiverse does not allow zip or rar file uploads, and as this is a 460MB stl I've had to compress it and add a ".cdr" extension to get around the limitations.
Download the file, remove the ".cdr" extension and you'll have a zip file to uncompress.

Note: This is a large and detailed stl file and may put some systems/slicers under pressure. It slices best in Cura 3.6+

Printed with Colorfabb Standard White PLA. Cool white backlight used(6000k-8000k).

A note on slicing in Simplify3D:
It’s easiest to slice the lithophane in Cura(or Slic3rPE) as there’s an extra step in Simplify3D due to the way the lithophanes are created(this by design to allow additional editing/printing options for more advanced users).

If you want to use Simplify3D you just need to do the following:

1. Load the lithophane STL into S3D as normal.
2. Click Mesh–Separate Connect Surfaces
3. Slice as normal

The added bonus of doing this is 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.
