Mona Lisa lithophane
Description
This is a lithophane of the famous Mona Lisa (La Gioconda) by Leonardo da Vinci.
Instructions
When printed in FDM it's best to print on a side (upright) to benefit from the layer resolution, also PLA is better because of less warping. The one in the picture was printed upright in white PLA (0.15 mm layers) on a PP3DP Up! Plus. It's best to use opaque material like white or yellow, ABS is possible but will warp more because of the thin structure.

It was made in custom CNC software, CNC milling often uses pictures or patterns to import for milling but it's also nice for 3d printing.

Well this one is probably too large, I never have trouble with Up! software slicing models (it's really fast). Other lithophanes I try to downsize a little for people without an Up printer ;-)
The software is ''custom built'' by someone I know.
