Hi Kevin

This is a pretty good start towards a technique compendium, but I can think
of a few things you missed. There’s element stressing (as
discussed at Brickfest
‘06),
|
This presentation about stressing the elements is HUGE but suffer from being not
widely known. Every builder have to read it.
| |
and I think it would benefit from a section on articulation.
|
Yes. Seen very good things on mechahub about articulation - again not widely
known, for instance “Joint Technology” by Chris Snead :
http://www.mechahub.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35&Itemid=167
(two parts)
(PS : check also in mechahub articles section stuffs about “Gestalt”)
| |
After all,
joints aren’t just for mecha! Also, sculpture techniques such as Bram’s
LSculpt are worth a mention,
|
I agree, worth a mention. (and more)
| |
and perhaps
a section on angles.
|
Sorry, I can’t really see what you mean exactly.
| |
I think a website would be more suited for this project. Having it as a .pdf
necessitates downloading the same content every new update, and there’s the
question of how often to update. Having a single author limits the range,
because of course nobody has the time to follow all the various genres for
technique advances. And as you already experienced, the danger of burnout is
always present in one person trying to tackle such a huge amount of
information.
|
You are totally right on these points. I’m about to reply about Brickwiki
farther on this thread.
