  For an alternative have a look to LeoCAD:

  - compatible with the LDraw Standard (used by BrinkLink Studio & LEGO Digital Designer)

  - work on Windows, Mac & Linux

  - GPL 2

• Lego X-Wing Taking Off
  1 project | /r/blender | 17 Feb 2023

  This is a short animation of a Lego Star Wars X-Wing taking off. I built the models using LeoCAD, and then exported them from there into Blender 3.4. The Lego material was made by me (you can download it here). Textures are from AmbientCG, and the HDRI is from Poly Haven. This render was my first time using Natron for some compositing. The animation was rendered at 1080p with 1024 samples.

• Lego militärbas del 1

• Lego San Francisco
  1 project | /r/blender | 14 Oct 2022

  This is a Lego Architecture model of San Francisco. I built the model using LeoCAD, and then exported it into Blender 3.3. I did a bit of geometry cleanup so I could subdivide and bevel the edges of some pieces. I made the Lego material myself (you can download it here). Most of the textures are from AmbientCG. The scene is lit by an HDRI from Poly Haven. Rendered at 4k with 4096 samples. I normally use the undenoised (non-denoised? adenoised? noiseful?) renders as the main ones, but because this is an interior scene, I used the denoised versions. For the undenoised renders, as well as scene views and the compositing setup, check out whocompute.com/img/62a9f8

• Lego Star Wars X-Wing in Cycles
  1 project | /r/blender | 28 Jun 2022

  A Lego X-Wing I made. I built the model in LeoCAD, so all the parts are from there. It is based on Lego set #75218, with some modifications as not all the parts in the set were available in the parts library. I exported it, and did some geometry cleanup so I could bevel the edges of the pieces. The material was made by me, with scratch and fingerprint textures from AmbientCG. Lighting was done by 3 area lamps and a sun lamp. I rendered it at 8192 samples. I didn't denoise it because I thought it looked better with a little grain. Denoised and uncomposited versions are available on my website: https://whocompute.com/img/9cfd85 Feedback is welcome.
