Latest progress. Very rough but with make some adjustments to the plans after I build this prototype. They way I have this programmed will be easy to add colours to plans and create new versions on the fly.

Anybody got it yet?

And we have a winner!

I have made my code flexible to create images for any number of studs. Still playing about with the scale and settings for print to get the best results.

My model building techniques are rusty and they never were great to begin with! If I do decide to do a full technic model though there will be plenty of practise by the time I am through!

Need to measure this against some of my real technique to see what the scale is. I just was using so many pixels per lego measurement.

I was thinking that while I was building it but hoped it was just how I was looking at it.

I just checked and I should have it down as 1 lego measurement but for some reason I have it as 2. I have it fixed and will reprint out the parts and get it fixed. I will try the inner bits first though to try and iron out any kinks there first.
