Nice work although I do recommend setting your camera angle a little
narrower. I mocked up a dat for that part using my sticker converting program
which you can find
here (dat

The print should work in POVray and LDView although it may not look like it
from some angles in MLCAD because of undersensitivity in the display
routines.
Please let me know if it is satisfactory.

Actually, it is quite good! Thank you for the link. I was working on a sticker
also, but whenever I rendered it, the sticker kinda stuck out rather than
blending in with the brick behind it. I went as far as making the sticker
background transparent, but that didn’t help much either. Yours is a better
improvement, plus you have it real close to the included brick which is nice.
How do you make a 1 x 2 brick with the pattern on the surface of the brick
itself? I’ve seen all the other bricks with patterns on them, and wondered how
you can make a brick like that. I’ve been wanting to make some custom minifig
torsos also that have patterns and labels on them, but I’m not sure how to do
that.
