Colour light box

Your image glowing in a backlit colour panel

A wall or shelf light box in two parts: a front cover printed face-down with your image as a thin multi-colour panel, and a back box with keyholes and a cable hole for an LED string. The box takes the shape of your image so it fills the panel edge to edge.

from $65.00 each

What works best

  • Any shape: the box follows your image (the short side is at least 70 mm)
  • Logos and flat art give the crispest colours
  • Faces should be at least 25 mm wide on the panel for photo shading

What we do to your image

  • Rotated upright using the photo's orientation tag
  • Colours mapped to our 10 stocked PLA filaments (max 8 per item)
  • Transparent margins trimmed; remaining transparency shows the background colour
  • Box shaped to your image, so nothing is cropped or letterboxed

At least 400 px on the longest side, 1200 px or more recommended.

Limits for this product

  • The front panel is 0.8 mm thick so the light shows the colours
  • Large sizes are reduced automatically to fit our printer with its colour-change tower (you will see the final size)
