 | | New minifig-scale anthromorphic lifter/loader —Jeremy H. Sproat
|
| | | Hey all, Here's another attempt to recreate the lifter/loader from the movie _Aliens_. While it's still quite a bit off in many areas, it's the closest I've come yet. LMKWYT!

That, and I need to throw together a few props to go with it... (...) (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

| | | | | Very, very nice, Jeremy. Now all you need is to make company that sells your line of loader/lifter. Call "Sproat Loaders Inc." or something like that. Keep up the good work! (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

| | | | (...) I really liked this model. I chose a camera angle from directly in front, and low. It looks great with the claws coming out at you. (URL) (58K) So what happens to the decals? Why don't they show up when rendering in POV? -Chuck (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

| | | | (...) The patterns that didn't show up are (incorrectly) made up of lines instead of polygons. L3P can't distinguish between edge lines and pattern lines, so it leaves them out altogether. Someone really should fix all the patterns which use lines. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | No, definitely not! IMO, Jonathan responded totally on-topic to my message, (with capitals and apostrophes perfectly in place). He pointed out that not only some printed patterns, but also the 2473 car wash brush contains "2 24..." lines that l3p (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
