How do I edit PDF Instructions?
deraven replied to Nemesis84's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
If you're on a Mac, just open the PDF in Preview, select the pages you want, and drag them to the desktop or a folder and it'll create a new PDF with just those pages. Or on any platform, if you can "print" or save to a PDF, just "print" for example pages 1-50 to a PDF and then 51-100 to another PDF. If you're wanting to do something more complex (pulling out submodels, adding directions or arrows, etc.) you'd need to do some of that by breaking down the model in Studio as mentioned above, and/or with a proper layout and editing program since PDFs aren't like Word docs and are meant to be more the final output. -
Great build! I love that general column design every time I see it, but your floor and those windows are stand-out excellent.

Welcome to EB, Chris! Plenty of fellow Adventurers (and general 90s themes) fans here to keep you company and help the light of Lego keep the dark ages away! Happy building!

[R6 - Galidraan - SCS] Moving the Beskar
deraven replied to Brickwolf's topic in Factions: A Galaxy Divided Archives
Cool little build. The old mudguards used for that cargo container are NPU. -
Arizona here, and no images. Trying to open an images directly via URL gives a generic Google User Content (so Google Images / Drive) access prohibited image, so definitely a problem of some sort.

[MOC] New Falcon Tower (3in1 Creator Tower re-imagined)
deraven replied to Ayrlego's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
That's lovely! Definitely better than the source material. The foliage on the ground really helps elevate it, and you've also got a nice amount of detail on the tower without it being busy. I long for the days when this might have been put out as its own castle set by TLG. Great build. -
Genuine Lego only. My first-hand experience is that other brands simply aren't good enough as far as quality goes. A few newer companies might be OK, but it's not worth the time and potentially wasted money to me to try them when Lego does a good enough job with what they're putting out and the secondary market (like Bricklink) fills the gap for other needs. There might be a few bricks from other brands in my collection if they were actually good enough for me not to notice when sorting out bulk lots or whatever but, like CastleRail said, they usually stick out from a mile away because they're so bad.

Definitely the vibe I get as well, and it's great! My favorites are the white secure transport truck and the dark green one. Would be great if the wheel arches on the green one could be rounded out a bit with cheese slopes or something. So many great elements throughout the 5 of them!

How long before new set parts get to Bricks & Pieces?
deraven replied to Tube Map Central's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Already shows up for me (in the US) when searching by the set number, and only a few pieces out of stock. Hopefully that means the UK won't be far behind... -
Looks great, and the greebling is nicely done (especially around the guns).
-
Looks great with lots of cyberpunk Christmas fun to be had there! Nice lighting, too.
-
Fun subject, and nicely done. I agree that there's be some interest in making a mod/add-on for the D2C version too!
-
That's pretty cool! Would be great to see some basic interaction added (like manipulating hinges and points of rotation so doors can be opened, etc.). I can imagine importing entire small towns to have dotted around the map and walking through a modular city after a long day exploring the randomly generated world. Great project.

My name is Iron Kitten, or POTaTO if you want.

Welcome to EB, Iron Kitten. Happy building (and then disassembling)! -
It looks good. Visually interesting without being too busy, and a pleasant color scheme and design. I see what you mean about the back of the building and would agree with BrickMatit in that a simple window on each floor aligned with where the door is on the first floor would break it up and would be an easy addition. You could also think about adding something like a downspout pipe on the left side of that back wall. Again, it would be an easy addition and give it some more detail without being distracting. Also, while it doesn't need it, you could put some very simple machinery on the roof to suggest air handling, etc., so it looks a little more finished. Very nice build overall! If there are any interiors please share those as well.

Welcome to EB, Bill! Happy building!

Pad printing is possible for decals but would be needlessly complex and expensive. The most common printing method for commercial decals is screen printing which, along with various other types including pad printing, applies each color as a separate layer and can result in minor offsets like that.
-
Ah yes, that would work. I can't say I've had occasion to want to make one, but maybe I'll add a few to a Thanksgiving build this year.

That's delightful, and quite well done!

This is spectacular! The overall display piece looks nice, but the detail you've included throughout is amazing. I especially like the floating feather for Wingardium Leviosa, the posing of the ghosts throughout, and Umbridge's office with Harry being punished (very pink, and nice expressions on the characters). Quite well done!

That is amazing all-around, but I must say that the smoking gun is a lovely touch!

Welcome to EB, Mikey! Happy building (& gaming)!

Welcome to EB, HydroWorld Outlook! I'm sure you will find plenty of inspiration and support here. Happy (Technic) building!

Looks great so far! Hopefully you won't end up needing to re-engineer too much for those finishing touches... that's always fun. As others have said, great shaping and scale while still keeping it runnable.
