Minifig Torso with HP Quirrell Pattern - Tom Lemmens - 2026-11-14
Some years ago, I imported #4702 into Bricklink Studio, and was disappointed by the many missing pieces. I started with recreating a missing torso piece by recreating the printing in Inkscape, and creating a piece with it in Bricklink's Part Designer. I sent it in to some community repository, never got any feedback. I thought of that again earlier today, I checked in, and it seems no community contributions are accepted at all these days.
It concerns this piece: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=973px175&idColor=0#T=C&C=0
I've wrangled my vector design into straight lines without curves, ran it through svg2ldraw, and then through the LD Pattern Creator. I don't know if I am handling this correctly. It seems to work fine in LeoCAD.
One color thing I was uncertain of: the printing had darker purple accents, I've put them as color 85 for now, I don't think that's quite right, but I don't know what else I could put there.
If my "method" provides workable output that people that brush up into proper parts that others can use, I might try to make more.
