First I would like to tanks all of you folks that help me in my first quest in pictures in wood.
I find the ash wood had so many different tones it made it difficult to get a good picture.
My friend was very please with the way they came out.
The litho came out very well too.
take a look and see.

Those wood pieces look great! Surely you did more than just import a picture. What technique did you use to develop the pattern?

The one in wood you show separately definitely is the best in wood and the litho turned out great.

My friend sent me a better picture the second time, I created a better ptn with it, the settings, Robert is depth 250, height is 100, my bit opt. is best, and I did invert it since it was going to be in wood. I did polish the face with a 120 grit mop
many time to make it shine.
The litho settings are standard, 180 d, h is 400, my puck is 6 watts and it give better lighting and the light cone is even all over.
As a matter of fact my customer just ordered 1 more wood and another litho.
back into the shop.

Perry, your images in wood are some of the best I've every seen posted here on the forum. Of course, my favorite is the lithophane. It is hard to beat what you can accomplish by carving a photo in Corian. Great work.

Thanks for the comments, this project has been a special one. All of the lithos that I have made in the pass are usually for a family member that has passed away. In this case , it is the brother of a friend and the ash wood was special to them since he was a woodworker and made bows.
I used a tung oil on the carving to give it a contras to the outside, then a high gloss finish over the hold project and it did come out well.
