Instant mirror model using blender.

Interesting!

Your LEGO logos will be mirrored, too.

Huh! Um.... Which one is the REAL cockpit??

They are bricks of clone brand "0a3J"

This tricks can save a lot of time. For symmetrical models ie: taj mahal or tower bridge. Only 1/4 of complete model to build

I just saw that you have imported this jaw-dropping Executor model by Fox Hound into MB. Nice job. How long did this take? I just sent him a mail on Eurobricks because I like to give it a try with MODO on one of my DELL machines or Alienware 17 with 32 GB RAM.

How to build such a monster in LDD or MLCad is a bit beyond my imagination. It must be extremely time consuming. And even a fast PC slows down at this level of number of bricks.

Thanks, virtualrepublic. For half of the ship (35K pcs) The import/export process in MB is very fast, but it took a while in blender (10 min maybe). All low-res renders took less than 15 min. I guess my notebook can not handle Lego logo or to assemble the complete 71K pcs in blender without simplify process(8GB RAM/ 2GB VRAM only). Looking forward to see your MODO renders soon.

Fox Hound offered me to pass me the files but I also bought them by his Ebay link. He deserves the 20 bucks for this insane amount of work. I am now waiting for the files.
