(...) Well, here's the Clown hair: (URL) one needed even more triangles to get the surface to look right, which I'm going to assume will be bad for LDraw conversion. If I make the triangle count more reasonable, the surface gets so smooth you might (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I just had a look at the real parts in that kit, and I guess the answer to my own question is "No". I could scan the helmet piece in the new Clone Trooper pack, but I don't think the results would be what you wanted.. The new parts are much (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Philo, I've sent you the STL file for the Anakin Skywalker hair piece and the Senate Commando helmet. Im not really satisfied with how the front of the part looks; if you look at the picture on Peeron theres a lot more definition in the hair (...)

Hi Reuben & Darell, (...) Yes, they look good. At first sight triangulation has too many triangles for a LDraw file, but it's easy to reduce. (...) I could have a try, but don't expect it so soon... Another problem is that I don't have the real part (...) (14 years ago, 22-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Can any of the experienced part authors confirm whether Darrell's files are suitable for making an LDraw part? From the visuals they look pretty good, but I'm no expert on the details needed to convert this type of model into a real part file. (...)

(...) I finished the other helmet in the magnet pack yesterday ("Senate Commando"), but I guess that wasn't the one you were looking for.. Has someone already done a DAT file for that? Or for the last figure in the pack, "Ashoka Tano"? If someone's (...) (14 years ago, 20-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

OK, this took a couple of hours of work (remember I'm learning as I go along). It's still a little crude, and there are a few holes in the overhangs,but it's a start! (URL) you guys still use Brickshelf? I hope I remembered how to do that (...) (14 years ago, 19-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

WOW!! I am surprised the scanned results are usable /AT ALL/!!!! I'm generally completely skeptical about technology's ability to perform such tasks. I.e. almost 100% of the time a human operator is what is needed to achieve usable results. (...) (14 years ago, 19-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
