All slope bricks have a little ledge so that the 4LDU space is left for the stud to fit in without intersecting anything.

However, 3675 (this brick's convex counterpart) does not:

I find this odd because in every other slope brick I can find, the inner slope and outer slope are parallel, except 3675:

This could just be because the ldraw model was directly derived from a scaled version of 3045:

(which by the way, has the ledge in real life, although it may just not be worth modeling due to its size.)

Compare the following photos:



The ledge of 3675 seems to be smaller than that of 3298 (left) (smallest modeled in the library) but larger than that of 3037 (right) (not modeled).

Since this part is the only one I've seen where the under side of the ramp is not parallell to the top side of the ramp, is it okay to assume that it should be there, and update the part?


Also worth noting is the fact that the ldraw version of 30363 has the ledge come all the way to the edge of the underside tube:

but the real-life version does not:

and the top and bottom seem to already be parallel:

What is the proper solution?

The Imperial Drop Ship battlepack, i got it as close as i could, but i couldn't find the engine parts, so not 100% authentic

ya know what, just the clone phase 2 will be good, maybe a battle droid if someone could spare the time

I found that this part is missing.

Is there anybody who schedule to make this as soon as possible?

Really, i would like the star wars Clone minifig, phases 1, 1.5, and 2 would be great. I want to start making Star Wars MOC's, so those would be nice

I am currently starting my first MOC, which is basically my first project. I will add additional levels, i just want to know if there are things to change before i get everything set

It would be nice if somebody could complete the rock boulder :

The top is already existing, but the bottom is still missing. In LDD both are available so the missing shape can be extracted.

Is there a brave soul out there in the part-designer community that will try to model the minifig handcuffs?



I know that they aren't much use in building MOCs, but I really miss them when I build the official police-sets.
So if anyone is up for the challenge, I would very much appreciate it!
