It would be cool if we had an LDraw equivalent of the MakeHuman project. I.e. a 3D model of a minifig that is compatible with LDRaw and can be deformed in external tools such as Blender in the same way that lots of TLG animations "cheat" by bending (...) (14 years ago, 27-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

I am not a Bricksmith user, so there may be issues I don't know, but 60481 is an official part included in library, so you don't have to download it individually (I suspect you didn't download it's subpart 60481s01.dat, or placed it in the wrong (...)
