Abstract
A method for manufacturing a plate-shaped three-dimensional object includes: preparing color image data including a colored three-dimensional pattern; and gray-scaling the color image data to obtain a grayscale image data. The method further includes: creating three-dimensional data based on a gradation of the grayscale image data; creating color three-dimensional data by performing texture mapping on the three-dimensional data using the color image data as a texture; and shaping the plate-shaped three-dimensional object by a full color 3D printer based on the color three-dimensional data.
