|
I would like too create animations of several of my models rotating around their vertical axes and upload them to YouTube. 1. What movie codec/format should I use? 2. The number of frames should be divisible by 4 so that I get a nice view of the (...) (14 years ago, 19-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) My process goes like this: 1) Find a relatively high-quality photo of the part and reorient it so it has the right proportions and faces me head-on.

I've been trying to use the fastrad.inc script with scenes generated by the new version (1.4) of L3P that supports LDConfig.ldr. However, the results are not nearly as attractive as they were with older versions of L3P. Anyone have an idea of what (...) (14 years ago, 18-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Hi Darrell, How about some of the hair/accessories from the recent Lego Minifigure series? (URL) like the Cirus Clown's hair or the Caveman's hair would be very hard to model using normal methods. Being a Lego Star Wars fan I'd like to see the (...) (14 years ago, 16-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)
