3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin Lithophane (2022 Update) • ItsLitho

3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin Lithophane

Create your own 3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin

We can find numerous amount of pumpkin 3D prints on Thingiverse. But what if we want to adjust the face – or you would like to have a witch, ghost, or someone from your family on the 3D Printed pumpkin? 

When done manually this would take a lot of your precious time. But with the Pumpkin shaped lithophane from ItsLitho this can be done in seconds!

ItsLitho is lithophane maker software, that helps you to convert every image into a 3D printable model. And with the pumpkin shape, you can print every image on your Halloween pumpkin lithophane!

This guide will help you how to make a good-looking pumpkin lithophane. The pumpkin shape has many parameters – that would need some explanation -to adjust the look of the pumpkin, but don’t be scared, we help you through it.

3D Printed Halloween Lithophane Lantern

Personalize Your Halloween Lithophane

The first step for making your Halloween pumpkin Lithophane is by designing your lithophane. If you have never done this, here is a quick Youtube tutorial on how to make one yourself! 

For the Halloween Pumpkin Lithophane we need to use the pumpkin shape, so let’s go make one!

Prepare your image(s)

Upload the image you want to convert into a lithophane. The scary face image we used can be found via this link. You can also load this profile to load the whole print we made directly into itslitho.

Edit your image(s)

Editing your image can really enhance the contrast of the lithophane later on.  

This is optional however, but you can always play around with the above parameters to make the contrast come our better

Model your Pumpkin Lithophane

When selecting the pumpkin shape you already converted your images on the pumpkin shape. When you have used your own image(s), it’s very possible the image is stretched over the entire pumpkin, this is undesired. Let’s fix that!

Image Correction

Head over to the Image Options. Here you’ll find some handy tools to adjust your image on the 3D model. For this specific scenario, we decreased the zoom factor since the image was way too big for the model. We also adjusted the horizontal placement to lower the image on the pumpkin a bit. 

Customize your Pumpkin Lithophane even more

For those who likes a lot of options, we made a lot of adjustable settings for this pumpkin shape on ItsLitho. These options will give you full control over the pumpkin shape. We will explain these options below.

Detailed Pumpkin Settings

Most Important Settings

We’ll first briefly explain the settings which will make up your pumpkin lithophane. The cad drawings below will help you understand what each parameter means.

Texture

By default, this setting is turned on. This means that the texture of the pumpkin itself will be visible in the results. On the other hand, when it is turned off, then the pumpkin will have the same thickness everywhere on the pumpkin. The lithophane is placed on top of the pumpkin. The pumpkin “texture” will not be visible inside the picture.

Invert texture

This function has multiple meanings based on whether the texture is turned off or on. If the texture is turned on, then this option will remove the pumpkin texture from the image, but not the other parts of the pumpkin. If the texture is turned off and this function is on, then the pumpkin which is not the image will be the maximum thickness.

Diameter

The pumpkin will never be smaller than the value given to the diameter. A perfect sphere can always fit inside the pumpkin with the given diameter. This sphere acts as the basis of the pumpkin

Grooves

The number of grooves each picture has on the pumpkin shape. Increasing this number will increase the pumpkin segments.

Default settings (Grooves = 5)

Grooves option is set to 10

AmplitudeY

Pumpkins are never a perfect sphere. Thus the amplitudeY setting will create the widened oval-like part of the pumpkin. Increasing this parameter will make the pumpkin more oval-shaped.

Default settings (AmplitudeY = 15)

AmplitudeY option is reduced to 5

FlatnessY

Determines how much the curved line is flattened. A high number will increase the magnitude in which the curve is flattened.

Default settings (FlatnessY= 2)

FlatnessY option is set to 20

AmplitudeX

Pumpkins are also not smooth. The amplitudeX setting will create a curved texture completing a pumpkin-like shape. If the texture is turned on (it is by default) then the amplitudeX setting is not visible anymore. Instead, the maximum thickness of the lithophane will govern the magnitude of the curve.

Default settings (AmplitudeX = 2)

Amplitude option set to 10 mm

FlatnessX

Determines how much the curved line is flattened. A high number will increase the magnitude in which the curve is flattened;

Default settings (FlatnessX= 2)

FlatnessX option is set to 20

Hor Angle

Determines the horizontal angle of the pumpkin. This way the pumpkin can be opened.

Vert Angle

This option has 2 inputs. It measures the vertical angle from the middle (in the vertical) to either the bottom or top of the lithophane.

Inside

The inside option is available for the pumpkin lithophane. This way you can surprise everyone with a normal-looking pumpkin. But once you turn on the light, an (scary) image will appear!

Known bugs:

  • Multiple images do not work if the texture option is turned off;
  • Attributes do not work well (it might sometimes) with the pumpkin lithophane;
  • Grooves increase by the number of images uploaded
  • Images are stretched over the entire pumpkin, in the future, we will add an automatic position function to retain the image aspect ratio!

3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin Lithophane

Download & Print your Halloween Lithophane

After downloading your lithophane we need to slice the lithophane.

The 3D printed pumpkin lithophane requires some extra attention. There are most likely large overhangs on the top and bottom of the pumpkin.

The top of the pumpkin will most likely be suspended from the ground and not connected to the other parts of the pumpkin as shown in the image below.

It is important to give this some thought. We suggest you use supports to be able to print the pumpkin lithophane. The best way would be to manually add supports for the top and bottom of the lithophane.

But a quick and easy way is to turn on the supports in your slicer. Increase the support overhang angle threshold to a high angle, such as 70 degrees. This will make sure that only the absolutely necessary parts will get support and often will avoid putting supports on the lithophane itself.

For more lithophane printing tips check out our lithophane setting post. 

3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin Lithophane

Show time

The last thing to do is print your lithophane. You could print the pumpkin with orange filament & a bright led light inside of the pumpkin. Or you could use a white filament with an orange led light inside of it.

Make sure to check the diameters of your print and the light source you want to use & make sure that it will fit your 3D printed pumpkin. 

Be careful while removing the supports, to keep the 3D model as clean as possible that’s it! You are ready to showcase your freshly 3D printed Halloween model!

Enjoy!

6 3D Printed Halloween Pumpkin Lanterns

Archive

whole plots on the sides of ruddy pumpkins, and then they put ready-made lanterns with lights inside on windows or near doors to scare away Stingy Jack and other wandering evil spirits. Halloween has recently passed and this year some manufacturers have attempted to take the process of creating Halloween lanterns to the next level with the help of their 3D printers. 3D Creation Systems, a Minneapolis-based company, even hosted a competition for the best 3D Jack-O-Lantern project.

Below are some of the most interesting entries in the competition:

Sebastian Kerner's 3D printed Jack Lantern.

Sebastian Kerner showed in his project description how to create such a pumpkin scene almost from scratch using 3D printing. You need to have at least basic Cinema4d skills to follow Sebastian Kerner's guide, which you can find here. When all the necessary drawings are ready, you can order a print of the model on almost any site that provides 3D printing services.

Spooky Jack Lantern by trecords1

Trecords1 created his lantern using Blender. "To draw this model, I created a UV sphere and cut off the top and right sides to turn it into a 1/4 sphere. Then I added a 'mirror' modifier to make it whole again. I tweaked the edges of the meridian to make the ridges on the pumpkin .Then I built a cube around the pumpkin as a warp mesh, pressed top and bottom on it to give my model the shape of a pumpkin,” says trecords1. Here you can download the .STL files for the top and bottom of the angry pumpkin model.

What to do with bj-2's 3D printed lantern

Once you 3D print the bj-2 lanterns' STL file, you can hang them on the tea candles inside above the fireplace to give your living room a special touch. Download files here: http://www.instructables.com/id/What-to-do-with-a-3d-printed-jack-o-lantern/

Editable 3D Printed Jack Lantern by TheNewHobbyist

The very original lantern from TheNewHobbyist was originally created in SketchUp, and only then was it transferred to OpenSCAD. TheNewHobbyist used mostly cylinders to create the shape of his lantern in SketchUp, so bringing the sketch to OpenSCAD was fairly easy, as cylinders are built into the program as base shapes. So he used the "Dimention" tool and created identical basic shapes in the OpenSCAD model.

The eyes, nose and mouth were "cut out" using the "difference" function in OpenSCAD. Thus, any other user can create their own pumpkins by changing the value of just one variable in the OpenSCAD file. There is also the option of a hole in the bottom to embed an LED or other light source into the flashlight. The finished "Customizable Jack Lantern" can be found here on Thingiverse.0005

Fungusamungus designed a 3D model of his pumpkin lantern in the free 123D Design app. The jack-o-lantern is designed to be illuminated by an LED built into it, so that the model glows, but at the same time it is small in size. Watch the video: http://youtu.be/6TLQF3m5h-s. The model can be downloaded here: http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-printed-Jack-o-Lantern/

3D printed USB LED flashlight from Htz

"My idea for a really cool Halloween lantern is a 3D printed lantern with an LED inside, powered by any USB. You can make it at home, all you need is a working LED and a USB plug. I used Solidworks 2012 to create the lantern project "- says Htz. "Once you've printed the pumpkin, tuck the LED inside (you can use hot glue to glue it to the top of the base), and attach the plus and minus USB cables to it. Once you're done with the LED, you can glue the USB holder to the base and voila - you have your own LED USB gourd flashlight!". You can make an option for sockets.

You can download the .123dx files for the USB LED flashlight on Instructables. Enjoy!
