up to now we have two samples of this part:

check this out. instead of 505 I just used a costum, dithered color with:
255 255 255 255 193 169
it is obvious to me that it’s just a lack of LDraw colors ...

C’mon. It’s classic space, not Power Rangers (or Knights Kingdom).
There are no light blue spacemen or spaceships in classic space.
The moon is not made of bleu cheese. Look with the eyes of a 10
year old and tell me it’s not supposed to be white.

honey bunny, you are totally wrong on this side ;-) it’s not at all about
spacemen and classic space rockets and cheesy moons. we are talking about an
IMAGE of an astronaut-rocket-moon on a big screen. it just shows to me that,
though our beloved minif..er are travelling in space, they still haven’t
overcome the technical problem with big plasma LCD screens, beside the fact that
the pic. has been shot with a crappy DV-Cam from the beginning of the century
(do you remember that galileo satellite on the shoulder of Orion?). BTW the
screen has been calibrate to 9300K - read the manual in your 6970.

My guess is the extreme white you see in the picture is the same
printing as the “blue-white”. It’s just brighter there because it
overlaps the earlier grey printing pass. This misregistering of the
printing passes will look different on every part and should not be
represented in the model.
|
I disagree on the overlap. if this is really a misregistering of the
printing passes the white border would have the same size in all
areas, while the white line on the rocket is much wider than the one
on the helmet or the craters.
|
So misregistering was a problem. Then perhaps the light grey was
purposely overprinted a bit in some spots, not to create a whiter
white, but to avoid ugly blue gaps between white and light grey due to
printing errors. You can see a bit of what they were trying to avoid
on the bottom right corner and the right side of the rocket on the 2nd
scan.
| |
before I started designing the part I also considered this being an
overlap (it would have saved a lot of time an effort just declare it
as an error) but IMO there ARE white borders around the craters,
minifig and the rest.
|
| |
I remember having a second version of this part I couldn’t use as a
basis for the re-engeneering because of its REAL overlap. I’ll post
a scan if I find it.
|
Yes, please do.
|
still searching. nontheless I’ll get really frustrated, if I have to get rid of
the white border after having spent so much time, just because we are
interpreting what’s supposted to see and not the real image (with an
doubtfull/undoubtfull overlap) I based the part on.
