30566 Plate Special 6 x 6 x 2/3 with 4 Studs and Embossed 'STAR WARS'

[Jeff Jones]

posting it here because i dont want to clutter the parts we are working on thread,

this is one of the missing 2000 parts

there are rounded edges on the letters but i have choose to omit them, maybe a simple triangle chamfer?
also i feel like the logo is way too the right

There's an existing "Star Wars" logo which should be used here.

i have checked the logo prim
the letters on the part is taller and there is a gap between star and wars logo prim cant be used

[Chris Böhnke]

Don't think there's enough variation to bother. The logo should have been pretty much consistent since 1999 I'd say.

Yes, the logo has the "TM" which is a bit unfortunate.

How about this (needs a bit polish still)?

Just noticed the studs on the base part are rotated wrong...

Update:
Fixed the edgelines, still a few gaps inside the logo though.

are there any issues i should correct first before uploading?
there is a tj between the bottom 2 studs and the top of star but i did that to avoid adding several thin triangles.

[Chris Böhnke]

Hmm... Okay I admit there are some subtle differences between the 1999 logo and the modern one.

   
   

If you really want to go that route, I would prefer for the letters:

*all lines are properly parallel (issues on the A's)
*equal thickness on all lines (issues on W in particular, haven't checked all yet)
*Curves connect tangential to straight lines (issues on both S's)

I think it's still possible to completely reuse the "ST" shape from the older primitive file.

v2

did chris' suggestions and changed the 1-4cyli to 5-16cyli

ready to be on the PT?
   

[Chris Böhnke]

Sure, why not.

You can link to this thread, so people on the PT know about the development.

[Jeff Jones]

there are microgaps due to rounding issue, missing keywords, etc
ready to upload?

Part review comment will be given on the Part Tracker. Doesn't belong in the forum.
