Decals of the pirate torso lib in LDD

Recommended Posts

The attempt to include the torsos in the library was stopped since there could be a much better result achieved later on in the rendering process without infringing the LDD Eula. Since this discussion was also done in the digital designer section of Eurobricks and stopped I've deleted the initial picture.

Here's oncemore the starting picture to create later on an enhanced render in povray with additional custom items)

Cool stuff! Did you follow any tutorials to put the decals in, and can I do something similar with MOD's I want to create?

Wow, I like this a lot! So far I've only managed to insert decals via 'LDD-2-POV-ray'... definitely have to check out this tutorial.

Thank you for sharing!

Currently that are only decals with original parts.

Here you find a render with a custom parts. The custom items were merged in povray directly via stl2pov and some experiments I have done during the last hours.

But at least ít's possible to add my own items. Let's see if that works out for the whole group.

Very impressive, great to see your custom items like this pirate_wubnew.gif.

I cannot imagine the amount of work you must be putting into this,

keep it up!

If you are adding these to the LDD library, you are violating the End user agreement of LDD. It is considered hacking by TLG & Eurobricks and can get you in big trouble, just so you know!

Of coruse, if you are adding these via another program to a picture, and not the actual LDD file, you should be fine.

The current process only creates an initial scene via LDD without changing any LDD configuration. All the customs were added later on during rendering in povray, so it should now be complete without infringement of any end user agreement of LDD.

Here's the final scene.

Very nice. Do you have more plans for these digital creations, like mocing up battle scenes or the like?

No, in principle I'm using these picture as front picture for my shop items. Beside that it should give the user an idea/reference which torsos and decals he should use ...

At the end there may be a lot of reference pictures available for Army builders covering some major units of the Napoleonic area (French, Austrian, Russian, Prussian, British)

Although I know how to build these scenes now it's very time consuming to set-up a scene (half up to one hour of work and afterwards 3-4h of rendering)

Here are some characters/types of uniforms also used in Master and Commander.

Most of the decals used in these scenes are derived from the pirate torso lib and are based on Mosana's principle design with many variations or adaptations from my side.

Unfortunately my computer is under service so the project evolves slowly ...

Some British Grenadiers:

And some pictures made for my custom shakos/helmets shop (by the way also a nice reference in some decals of the torso lib done by Mosana or me):
