[MOC] Santa Fe EMD F7A Warbonnet #315
supertruper1988 replied to SavaTheAggie's topic in LEGO Train Tech
You can see if you zoom WAAAAAY in that it is indeed 47454 -
When you get in to the instruction maker, select some parts and then click the "step before" or "step after" parts to move them to a new step before or after the current one. It takes a little getting used to and and multiple sub models have to be created in the editor, not the instruction maker. BluePrint's algorithm for generating steps already is a super feature but once the flow of Studio is worked out, I find it to be a little better because i am not scrolling all over to find the parts I need, I just select and move.

[MOC] "This hunk of bricks is even older than I am..."
supertruper1988 replied to Blip's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Cool ship! I like the original color scheme from a Sci-Fi fan perspective. Its muted colors make it look "real". The Classic space is great too because it brings the LEGO nostalgia. Great MOC! -
Studio 2.0.1_16 Download
supertruper1988 replied to supertruper1988's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
That is correct. Thanks tho! -
This will be especially important. The buildings were over 1300 feet tall so even at nano-fig (1:110 as defined by the Saturn V set) the buildings would still be 12 feet tall. That would take hundreds of thousands of bricks. I see you are new at this so you may want to look at general building techniques and maybe buy a few buckets of LEGO and work out how you might build a few floors at a reasonable scale regardless of color. Once you have the shape and size down, open up a digital program like LDD or Studio and build the rest of the building. This will generate a rough parts list and you can order from various bricklink sellers to get all the parts you need.

One thing that I did not see mentioned was that because Studio uses LDraw models, you can directly import Custom Ldraw parts.On Windows the path is:.\Program Files\Studio 2.0 Beta\ldraw\Custom Parts\parts (the space is required in the Custom Parts folder and if there are and sub-parts, the /s folder will need to be added as well. )On Mac it is /applications/Studio 2.0 Beta/ldraw/Custom Parts/parts (the space is required in the Custom Parts folder and if there are and sub-parts, the /s folder will need to be added as well. )I have found that unofficial parts cannot be added to the unofficial folder.One trick that Philo helped me with recently, was that although Studio doesn't support flex parts, LDcad can be used to make them using the "generate a loose file" option and place the generated file in the Custom Parts folder. Custom parts will have no snapping data but that is not too hard to work around. This also allows the great render to work with flex and other custom parts.Another tip is in the settings, you can assign brick movement to keys so that there is not the need to use the transform arrows. (I use WASD because I am comfortable with that from my gaming days)

Steinbruck - Modular town & Vehicles (NEW: Corner Square)
supertruper1988 replied to Nightfall's topic in LEGO Town
Wow awesome job! I really like your Road Works crew! -
@Carsten Svendsen Looks great! Glad a solution presented itself. I also didnt know that the arch parts worked so nicely but I happened upon them after looking at your question. I will probably use that int he future to make a giant clock on a building
