Can somebody make me 3754pb01 ?
criker started this discussion in Parts and Decorations Design

Hi, I would like to use the brick 3754pb01. But i don't know how to create it. I'm new to this and the decoration is too complex for me.

Here are some photo's and a scan of the part:

the decoration is only used in one set i think.

Here are some of the other photo's i made.

Thank you for your help!

The part 3754 has been in the workshop already for a few days.
If you're looking to find out how to make a decoration: http://mecabricks.com/en/forum/topic/268
It will take some work as the decoration is complex indeed but the workshop should generally stay the same.

Done.
The scanned version was good enough to use my workflow and Image Trace from Illustrator. It is not perfect but it does avoid spending hours on it 😉

I made "the other" : Brick 1 x 6 x 5 with LL2079 Floating Astronaut Pattern , it's a 1024x1024 png with only the decoration, I can transform it to any other dimension to adapt the UV map
It's available here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6_DEOWkiEG6NzZhbWJzODJhdkE/view?usp=sharing

Thank you so much! Looks realy great in the set!

@mathieub I noticed that colours were a bit shifted compared to Mecabricks colours. Did you check the profile? I wasn't sure about the dark blue colour. Do you think that this is this dark one? I have also noticed some brownish areas. Shall they be dark gray?

Do you also have a Bricklink reference? I think I finished with my questions lol

Thanks for helping 😉

I have the reference here : http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=702#T=C&C=7
I also used the ldraw part as a color reference and they use dark blue there.

You were right about the brown, I forgot that part 😉

For the color profile I use the one given by wlange in this topic : http://www.mecabricks.com/en/forum/topic/268 . Should I update it ? I just checked I was working in CYMK...

Anyway I updated my png on my google drive if you want to check.

And you're welcome, it's the least I can do to help...

It looks like your previous link to your file on google drive still points to the old file.

I looked at photos online and background is not made out of Dark Blue. However, I cannot find the right colour. Shall we use Dark Royal Blue (196)? It is what is the closest even if not in use in 1980.

I think that whatever the color it just should be the same on the 2 parts, so if you feel it's better with Dark Royal Blue it's OK for me !
Here is an updated version with 196 instead of earth blue : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6_DEOWkiEG6Vm1mNUNmSGs3WTA/view?usp=sharing
