Sloped brick with Batman logo


Sloped brick with Batman logo
#1
I'm looking for an LDraw version of this part: http://picclick.com.au/Lego-batman-slope...86812.html


I found this part (973pb0a.dat) that has the Batman logo, but how do I extract just the Batman logo from the dat file (I was thinking I could just create a sticker part and lay it on top of the slope brick).

I also found this sticker part (4297014a.dat), but the logo is to big for the slope brick - is there a way to easily scale this logo to make it smaller?

What's the best tool for selecting/extracting certain parts of an existing part file? (other than Notepad++)

The best tool nowadays is LDPartEditor (http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/).
For simple tasks like this MLCad can do the trick (but it doesn't allow to cut and paste between two different files so you will probably need a text editor too in the process...

Thanks Philippe - I used LDPartEditor to extract the logo part and created a new file called "batman_logo_small.dat". I then added this to the part 47753.dat in an attempt to create this part:
http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cata...5#T=C&C=11

This brick+sticker is featured in this set:
http://brickset.com/sets/7780-1/The-Batb...iller-Croc

I guess the sticker part could be "embedded" into the 47753 part to make a new part? Would this then be a new "official" LDraw part?

Could you take a look at the sticker alignment on the wedge brick? How close should this be to the surface of the brick? The relevant files are attached
