One of the latest trends in the world of 3D printing involves painting with your filament to create beautiful works of art – more commonly known as a HueForge print. The results can be astonishing, ranging from 3Dyou own, I'm going to show you exactly how to create a HueForge print from start to finish with this guide. But be warned, HueForging can be a tricky process. If you're new to 3D printing then this could get overwhelming, but give it your best shot.
Lithophanes are black-and-white images that need light to pass through them for the image to be visible, and then colour lithophanes were developed next. HueForge prints are a little different, with a basis on front-lit printing. No light source is required, only merged layers of coloured filament to create the image.
You need to drag the filament colours down into the sliders at the bottom and play around with each setting and the model geometry to find what works best. You can then export your project as an STL file and open it in your slicer. Based on the instructions you get from HueForge, you'll most likely need to set your layer height to around 0.08mm and your base layer height to 0.16mm, with an infill setting of 100%. Your layer height should never be higher than 0.
Other than not being able to initiate the colour change Marlin M600 command, additional setbacks I faced when making a HueForge were stringing, lack of bed adhesion, strange waves in the first layer of the print despite adjusting my Z offset, and what I think may have been a wet filament issue. Here are the fixes I found.The best way I found of fixing stringing was to simply reduce the temperature I was printing at from around 220c to 180c.
