PIC2LAYERS GUIDES

Filament Painting Guides

Learn how to turn photos and artwork into layered multicolor 3D prints, choose better images, configure layers and prepare Pic2Layers designs for printing.

Start with the method

New to the technique? Read what filament painting is and how Pic2Layers works. These explain how colors stack, what the viewer shows and why you should check materials in your slicer.

Prepare your image

The image-to-3D-print guide covers contrast, small details, color count, dimensions and file formats. It is the best next step when your first preview loses important details.

Check before printing

The FAQ answers questions about 3MF, STL, manual swaps and privacy. When you are ready, create a project and inspect the sliced result before printing.
