This is my first attempt at creating a lithophane. I took my favorite picture of my nephew, uploaded it to designer and followed everyone's advice. Went on e-bay and found LED strip lights, power supplies, and switches. Now I have it mounted in a shadow box, unfortunately, I am having a hard time getting a good picture of it in the shadow box. Oh well. So, here it is sitting in the window. I think it turned out great.

Thanks for all the advice.

Great subject/photo for the litho! Yes trying to take a good picture of a litho is a challenge.

Congratulations on a job well done. Now that the Litho-bug has hit your machine will probably never get a rest now.

Hi Jeremy,

That came out great! People are always looking for good sources for the electronics to light a litho/shadow box. Do you have links to the ebay seller where you purchased yours?

I buy the ready made LED light panel at http://lithophanelights.com/. Not cheap but worth it!

Good job, Jeremy. That came out nice. You are now officially hooked on litho's. As am I and quite a number of others.
