Wow, this is quite the improvement and achievement! I know how hard skin tones are and this is just stellar work.

I use sunlu CYMK filament and I noticed the same, it shows up in the faces or skin more. I can give it a go with my sunlu filament if you like. Is the beta program out so I can try it ? I have images I have created with AI as well :)

So the current version at ptpcreate.com I would say is pretty much out of beta. The issue is for the tool to work well it needs a profile specifically to the brand and I don't have a Sunlu filament profile. When there were only a few companies with CMYK sets I just purchased them, but that was starting to get expensive so unless Sunlu sends me some I probably won't do a profile for them.

The extra settings i use in studio are much the same as the text file you include. Layer height 0.8, initial height 0.1, line width 0.45 on all, infill pattern rectlinear, 100% sparse infill density, detect narrow internal solid infill unchecked, ensure vertical shell thickness partial, rib width 0, fillet wall unchecked, infill gap 100% , outer brim to keep it solid on the plate and height range modifier 0.58 mm. It is taking 7 hrs to print one. That makes it pretty clear. I may invest in a 0.2mm nozzle to see the difference :)

Ok thanks, i got it better by playing with the settings in bambu studio. it turns out pretty good, a lot better than the pictures that the make my lithophane in bambu does. Im using a bambu X1c to print with and in the lightbox they are looking good. i guess i also need a 0.2 nozzle as well. Im still using the default 0.4 nozzle in the X1c. like i said the litho is 100% better than the bambu generated one :) thanks for all the work creating this. well done !
