Hello,
Part database is growing and more and more people are willing to help. I think it is a good time to share information and tips about making decorations for Mecabricks pieces.
Decorations in Mecabricks are PNG images (sRGB IEC61966–2.1) that are projected on the 3D objects using uv mapping technic.
Please have a look in this folder to download the uv maps available https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3dmCtByvZwEZU5xY1d4Smg2ZGM
They are of unequal quality and some parts have multiple revisions. Don't hesitate to ask here if you are unsure.
For the colour palette used on mecabricks download this file http://www.mecabricks.com/docs/colour_chart.pdf
Don't hesitate to redownload it often as I'm updating the mecabricks colour values any now and then.
There is only one deviation from the colour chart to remember and it is for Black 26:
- If Black is used as the background colour of the decorated part, use the value from the chart (#101010)
- If Black is only part of the decoration, use #010101
Can you make something for Black Flash, I don't Know any prints for him if you don't know what he looks like here:
Thanks Scrubs, for all the forums you make about making decorations. You really helped me out. 😃
@XillComics that minifig is unofficial. In other words 'fake'. Released by another company.
Hello, I want to add custom printing to one of the basebal cap pieces. Even though the piece has had printing on it before, you aren't able to add your own. Also, piece 11303 shows a 2 in the upper lefthand corner, which should mean that you can add printing right? But it still doesn't allow you to. Can anyone help me with this?
@Apple_Juice this happens because the baseball cap piece has hot yet been updated to the new part system. You can request it to be remade. Part 11303 has 3D View available but can not be decorated because it has no UV Map.
How can I make a request for it?
I have a question. I made a Pre Vizla helmet. And submitted it. It was rejected. Could you explain why?
Thanks for sharing
i still cant message people
what image type do you need for decals like for the torsos. I tried PNG, JPG
PNG... what didn't work?
thanks
E.A.V. Films, it might be because your file size is over 1 (some measurements I don't remember). Check the file size, they stop excepting some sizes over time.
