Here is a prototype of what my final will look like. It is a 12x24 inch frame and it's going to be made out of plywood. I will laser cut all of it and use wood glue to assemble it. There will also be 5 or 4 layers of city/buildings. Between each layer of city, there will be a strip of LEDs behind.
San Francisco City Skyline laser cut out of either cardboard or wood. Placed in a box frame with color-changing lights behind. This will illuminate the wall it is on with a shadow of the city. Turns on and off with a switch or remote(white/yellow, red, and blue light). This can either be hung on a wall as decor or placed on a shelf/table as decor.
