Hi mate,
Just get the lightbox made as per normal.
This one has had the black laid on the face, with the text cut out exposing the opal perspex substrate behind it.
Get the letters cnc or laser cut in clear, then coat with translucent material.
Use a clear perspex or acrylic glue to lay them over the exposed opal sign face, and you have a very simple 3D light box.
If you do the signage yourself, and just buy a box, you’ll save yourself some money.
