one of these days im going to release my tlm drafting headcanons from my notes app purgatory and that day is Today.

HERE'S HOW I THINK LEGO MOVIE CHARACTERS WOULD PREPARE AND MAKE DRAFTS

...under the cut

Batman

• Fairly good at drawing. Somehow able to draw straight lines without a ruler perfectly fine every single time but otherwise nothing super noteworthy (he does brag about this constantly however)

• Drafts in white and yellow posca pen??? will use white colored pencil for finer detail however, specifically one of those mechanical colored pencils

• Drafts on black paper because he thinks it makes his designs cooler (it doesn't)

• Dimensions in imperial and would be annoyed if you dare even *insinuate* he use metric. no justification here

• Doodles around his drafts, specifically likes to doodle bats and himself because he, once again, thanks it makes his drafts cooler (the bats kinda do)

• Refuses to leave notes on his designs. you either know what to do or you don't

• Does however write his drawing title obnoxiously large

• Used autocad for like a day, hated it, switched to solidworks and never went back

• Buys autodesk licenses for the rest of the masterbuilders. unwillingly, mind you, wyldstyle just knows his credit card information and abuses it

Benny

• Good at drawing exclusively spaceships. big shock i know

• The king of eyeballing a line or an angle and then labelling it however the fuck he wants. proper measurements take time he could spend drafting or making more spaceships, he'll save measuring and straightedges for drafts he deems important enough

• Uses blueprinting paper. there's no practical purpose for this, he just digs it

• Drafts with whatever writing utensil is on hand

• He gets inspired quite often so he usually keeps a drafting notepad on him just in case

• Leaves a *lot* of notes. Most of them are completely unnecessary and are a funny contrast to his haphazard dimensioning

• Pretty dang good at autocad! Usually reserves it for projects that require a lot more collaboration however

• Usually drafts in metric, can dimension in imperial but prefers not to

• 100% sets autocad to the light background like a monster

• Do not give him any 3d modelling software, he might blow up the computer

Emmet

• Either really good or really bad at drawings (obvs leaning towards bad. we remember the break in plans)

• Dimensions in imperial. I cant justify this one he just does. god bless america or something idk

• Owns a couple drafting pencils but rarely uses them, most of the time he drafts in marker or pen much to the chagrin of anyone who needs to read his drafts (or delight if you're unikitty)

• Started learning how to use autocad after taco tuesday and he's actually pretty good at it! he does use an architectural dimstyle for everything though which is particularly annoying when he's quite often not drafting buildings now

• Has labelled and colored layers 👍 enough said

• Uses disgustingly thick lineweights. horrible.

• Rarely if ever 3d models so he's not good at it, he mostly works on things that 2d conveys better anyways

• Although he's not the best drafter of the master builders, his construction background makes him the best at reading drafts, give him a unikitty draft and he can decipher it like it's nothing

Metalbeard

• Probably the best at drafting of the master builders, he's got the age advantage and lots of practice from making ships

• Drafts in pencil, quill, or charcoal depending

• Who needs straightedges or angle stencils when youre basically a pirate cyborg, expect robot like precision

• Doesn't use standard measuring conventions, instead opts to use the dumbest things possible. The Sea cow's units of measurement were seagulls. It isnt that he cant do normal units of measurement, he just prefers his made up ones

• Makes his drafting paper by himself

• Pretty good with 2d and 3d modelling surprisingly. He doesn't like either, however, he much prefers drafting on paper

• Leaves an average amount of notes on his drafts but has the most disgustingly fancy cursive and writes in his piratey english. Often a nightmare to read if you aren't used to his writing

• Will sometimes do blueprint swaps with Benny wherein they critique each other's work. not sure when they started doing it, but it's become a weekly activity for them

Unikitty

• Worst drafter of the main masterbuilder crew. Most people think it's because she's a cat but no she just doesnt take drafting seriously in the slightest

• Drafts like she's making an arts and crafts project. She has put several bottles of glitter on singular drafts and she will do it again

• Dimensions in rainbows, no knows what this means other than emmet

• Gives the longest, most complicated titles possible

• No such thing as straight lines

• Is entirely capable of drafting properly, just refuses to

• Leaves notes that are entirely unrelated to the draft. she wont tell you how youre supposed to connect two objects but she *will* tell you about the sandwich she ate while making the draft

• Doesnt use autocad, looks too boring

• Didnt use any 3d modelling softwares until she realized you can change the appearance of materials. that was a game changer. still much prefers drafting on paper though

• Likes drafting with emmet sometimes since he seems to be the only person who understands her drawings. to this day no one understands how he does it

Vitruvius

• Going blind has, surprisingly, not made him much worse at drafting, just changed his process a bit

• Drafts in pencil

• Probably the person who least frequently drafts of the main masterbuilders. On account of just not needing to and also on account of being dead

• Dimensions in the old anglo-saxon units of measurement

• Doesn't title his drafts and doesnt see a point in doing so

• Leaves the most vague, utterly confusing notes on his drawings. theyre still related to the drawings unlike unikitty's notes, but theyre very odd

• Doesn't use autocad or 3d modelling softwares, partially because he wouldnt really be able to on account of being blind but also partially because he doesn't really know what they are

• There isnt really much to say about his drafting skills he's about as normal of a drafter as a masterbuilder can be

Wyldstyle

• An engineering teacher's dream student. She may not have the amount of experience metalbeard has but she's still very skilled

• Doesn't like drafting on paper and won't if she doesn't have to

• When she does draft on paper she uses a drafting mechanical pencils. she also 100% collects them

• dimensions in metric to exactly 3 decimal places

• leaves very few if any notes (always very concise ones if included)

• has a case of staedtler stencils that she bought 4 years ago and never uses

• picked up a habit of doodling on drafts from batman but will never admit she got the habit from him

• Autocad PRO. Also really damn good at solidworks and fusion. Give this girl a computer and she'll give you a motorcycle assembly within the hour

• Specializes in automotives

• Spends time with Emmet on the weekends teaching him how to use digital drafting softwares (this process was incredibly frusturating at first but gets easier with time)

#this has been rotting in my drafts and i needed to set it free #live laugh love kind of boring headcanons and combining your interests #the lego movie #lego movie

Hey! I love your art so much 💖 I wanted to ask what program you use for 3D modelling?

aw thank you!! :3

and to answer your question i’m going to warn you this is going to be kinda long because i’m gonna use this post as an excuse to show my 3D models that aren’t awful (sorry lol).

i actually use two different programs, both for different purposes, but you don’t need to get both, it really depends on which kind of modeling you want to do.

1) the first is called Nomad Sculpt on the iPad, you do have to pay for it unfortunately but it’s definitely one of the best modeling apps for the iPad. i know Blender is free but my computer is really old and doesn’t run the program very well, and at this point i’ve already gotten used to nomad sculpt.

anyway tho, i use it for art-related things like the obvious 3D models, but recently i’ve been playing around with just making scenes to use as references for my drawings. they’re not anything impressive, most of the time i actually use it to make little figurines to print and turn into earrings/little friends that sit in my room just for fun.

i’m gonna show this first bc they look cooler once they’re printed and colored (also you can tell i printed mini crowley and aziraphale when my sonadow hyperfixation started bc i never actually painted crowley) (he’s just kinda sitting there oops).

the little red guys are actually my favorite bugs (goliath beetles), i made them about a year ago but i still wear them like every day.

and here’s what they look like in the app, it’s a little intimidating but once you get used to it it’s actually kinda fun just playing around and seeing what you can do.

2) the second program i use is Shapr3D (also for the iPad, but i think they made an update where you can run it on windows/mac). you also have to pay for this as a subscription which sucks, i’m only able to use it since the engineering program i’m in pays for it.

Shapr3D is one of the many CAD software programs out there, but it’s nice bc it’s very beginner friendly and very easy to use. CAD is mainly for architecture/engineering but i honestly think more 3D artists should give it a try. it’s really nice once you get the hang of it and (i’m probably biased bc i’m a student) i honestly prefer it over just normal modeling software because i feel like you can be a lot more creative with it.

right now for my engineering class, our semester final is to design and present something that’s functional, and we can either explain the math behind it or just 3D print it and demonstrate how it works, and i’m making a functional mini model of “the rack” trap from Saw III (i’m not psychotic i swear i’ve just had a Saw hyperfixation for 5 years).

i’m definitely gonna post it when it’s finished just bc i’m already excited with how it’s turning out, but for now here’s a couple at-home projects i’ve done:

(above) i have a bunch of wet liners and i designed a stackable holder thingy with bolts between the shelves and a little cute star screw to fasten it at the top.

(above) i also made a few rotating brush holders at home (bc the ones that actually rotate are like $40 for some reason) by buying a set of small sphere bearings at home depot for like $5 (that’s what those little metal things are inside the third one, i took it apart bc i don’t know how to put a video and a picture in the same post) (just pretend they’re spinning rn).

anyway that’s all!! if you actually read this whole thing i love you so much bc engineering and design is one of my special interests so thanks for letting me tell you about the silly things i’ve made :3

Let me preface this: I'm an architecture major

I used to be a big LO fan but obviously fell out of love of it like a lot of us did, and I know LO uses SketchUp for backgrounds. That is not an issue I have with the comic or any comic, I want artists to have an easier time in any way they can. I was always under the impression Rachel imported the models into Photoshop and drew over them like you can see in the early episodes with the sketchy lines. Well, school just started recently for me and I now have access to SketchUp for my coursework, and I made a few discoveries: 1. Photoshop cannot read SketchUp files, and while you can import them into Clip Studio through some configuring, they can be finicky and will lose parts in the importing process, so they are best used into the original SketchUp program to export as PNGs. 2. Many of the models Rachel uses are incredibly easy to find, especially if you put "modern", "luxury", or "classy" before the main part of the search. Many of the houses and rooms for example are first page results. 3. The biggest discovery: You know how we all assumed Rachel was hand-drawing all the lines over the SketchUp models and how she gave up the longer LO went on? Well, it's actually worse. It turns out SketchUp has a thing called "Styles" in it, which means you can mess with the lines and look of the model, such as making it look more like a blueprint or playing with the colors. Well, they have a lot of styles on SketchUp known as "sketchy lines", which are the exact ones Rachel used early in the comic to fit with her style, and it takes a literal click of a button to do. All she would do is pose the model, click the sketchy line style, and export the PNG. That's it. So, yeah, Rachel is so checked out of the comic that she can't even bother to click a single button to make the models fit into the comic's style anymore. Use that information however you like.

Ouhhh sorry OP, I'm about to like, undo all the work you just put into that ask. We've already known about the 3D background problem for a long while now.

First off, it's more likely LO doesn't use SketchUp but actually Acon3D, which is a website that offers 3D models both for free and at cost, which are actually compatible with software like Clip Studio. As soon as you open it up you'll likely see a lot of very familiar backgrounds that are often used in romances, isekais, and period pieces. It's literally the go-to spot for Webtoon Originals creators. Like, to the point that I wouldn't be surprised if Naver was partnered with them because of how many of their creators use it.

Second, there's plenty of up-to-date evidence to support the fact that Rachel doesn't exclusively stick to one software, sometimes she's drawing in Photoshop, sometimes she's drawing in Clip Studio Paint, sometimes she's drawing in Procreate. She's undoubtedly using Clip Studio for her paneling, speech bubbles, and backgrounds, as there are built in tools to utilize and convert 3D materials into lineart, among other features that are recognizable as coming from CSP because they're not available in PS or Procreate.

Third, yes, she just uses filters to turn her backgrounds into lineart, this has been apparent since S1. The only backgrounds she's ever 'hand drawn' were the ones involving lots of nature and even those are mostly just Photoshop brushes stamped on.

Like I realize I'm probably bursting your bubble here and I apologize for that lmao but these buildings were never hand-drawn, this is not new information (￣﹏￣；) I appreciate you mentioning your own experiences with it as you're learning it though, I find once you start to learn the process yourself you really start to notice what others are doing. Even I've gone through that over the past couple years as I started to use 3D models and more advanced tools specifically for drawing webtoons.

I will mention btw, there's nothing wrong with using 3D models for your character drawing and backgrounds. The only time it tends to get frustrating is when you're reading a comic that isn't making any attempts to blend the background in with the art style.

Like, The Kiss Bet probably uses 3D models to help with perspective and laying out scenes quickly without second-guessing, but you can tell they still hand-draw over the models because they look natural and like they belong to the comic's stylization. The characters don't look out of place sitting in a living room and the living room doesn't look distracting.

But then you get stuff like Lore Olympus, Let's Play, and Midnight Poppy Land, and it becomes a bit more obvious they're not giving a shit about backgrounds lmao

I get it, WT's deadlines are cutthroat as fuck, but if it's getting to the point that you have an entire team behind you and you're literally just copy pasting video game models from Phantom Hourglass, then it's probably time to re-focus your priorities a bit. There are comics with as few as 1-2 assistants (and even in some cases no assistants at all!!) pulling off backgrounds better than this, even when they're taking shortcuts.

(Nevermore and City of Blank)

But a lot of that does come down to how WT manages its expectations as well as support for their creators. The deadlines and requirements WT puts their creators under are insane and awful in the long-term, and they're not acting with the amount of professionalism they ought to be for a platform that's trying to breakout as a major publisher here in the West. I feel like it comes down to WT loosening the choke chain around their creators, but also creating a standardized level of quality to ensure it's not suffering for the sake of quantity. The traditional literature industry has real editors and stages of quality control for a reason, whereas WT is more interested in just throwing as many series at the wall and dumping all their stock into the ones that stick.

Are you looking to take your SketchUp designs to the next level? With V-Ray materials, you can achieve stunning photorealistic renderings that will impress your clients and elevate your projects.

Introduction

SketchUp is a powerful 3D modeling software that allows designers and architects to bring their ideas to life. V-Ray, on the other hand, is a popular rendering engine known for its ability to produce high-quality and realistic renders. By combining the two, you can unlock a new level of realism in your SketchUp projects.

Understanding V-Ray Materials

Before we dive into the process of using V-Ray materials in SketchUp, let’s first understand what they are. V-Ray materials are digital representations of real-world materials that mimic their physical properties, such as color, texture, reflectivity, and transparency. They allow you to apply lifelike materials to your 3D models, making them look more convincing and visually appealing.

Benefits of Using V-Ray Materials in SketchUp

Using V-Ray materials in SketchUp offers several benefits. Firstly, they enhance the realism of your renders by accurately simulating the behavior of real materials under different lighting conditions. Secondly, V-Ray materials provide greater control over the appearance of your objects, allowing you to achieve the desired look and feel for your designs. Additionally, V-Ray materials can save you time by providing pre-made material presets that you can easily apply to your models.

Would you like me to assist in designing the user interface for the public portal or drafting partnership proposals for funding?

To begin building the program for the Tree Citizenship Identification System, we’ll start with a scalable framework that allows us to process, store, and analyze data while preparing for future expansions. Here's an actionable development plan with an initial focus on foundational code and infrastructure:

Step-by-Step Development

Phase 1: Setting Up the Backend Infrastructure

Objective: Create the core database and develop the data pipeline for processing tree data.

Technologies:

Programming Languages: Python, JavaScript (Node.js), SQL.

Frameworks: Flask or FastAPI for APIs, Django for web application backend.

Database: PostgreSQL for structured data, MongoDB for unstructured data.

Code Snippet 1: Database Schema Design (PostgreSQL)

-- Table for Tree Registry CREATE TABLE trees ( tree_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, -- Unique Identifier location GEOGRAPHY(POINT, 4326), -- Geolocation of the tree species VARCHAR(100), -- Species name age INTEGER, -- Approximate age in years health_status VARCHAR(50), -- e.g., Healthy, Diseased height FLOAT, -- Tree height in meters canopy_width FLOAT, -- Canopy width in meters citizen_rank VARCHAR(50), -- Class or rank of the tree last_updated TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW() -- Timestamp for last update );

-- Table for Sensor Data (IoT Integration) CREATE TABLE tree_sensors ( sensor_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, -- Unique Identifier for sensor tree_id INT REFERENCES trees(tree_id), -- Linked to tree soil_moisture FLOAT, -- Soil moisture level air_quality FLOAT, -- Air quality index temperature FLOAT, -- Surrounding temperature last_updated TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW() -- Timestamp for last reading );

Code Snippet 2: Backend API for Tree Registration (Python with Flask)

from flask import Flask, request, jsonify from sqlalchemy import create_engine from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker

app = Flask(name)

Database Configuration

DATABASE_URL = "postgresql://username:password@localhost/tree_registry" engine = create_engine(DATABASE_URL) Session = sessionmaker(bind=engine) session = Session()

@app.route('/register_tree', methods=['POST']) def register_tree(): data = request.json new_tree = { "species": data['species'], "location": f"POINT({data['longitude']} {data['latitude']})", "age": data['age'], "health_status": data['health_status'], "height": data['height'], "canopy_width": data['canopy_width'], "citizen_rank": data['citizen_rank'] } session.execute(""" INSERT INTO trees (species, location, age, health_status, height, canopy_width, citizen_rank) VALUES (:species, ST_GeomFromText(:location, 4326), :age, :health_status, :height, :canopy_width, :citizen_rank) """, new_tree) session.commit() return jsonify({"message": "Tree registered successfully!"}), 201

if name == 'main': app.run(debug=True)

Phase 2: Satellite Data Integration

Objective: Use satellite and LiDAR data to identify and register trees automatically.

Tools:

Google Earth Engine for large-scale mapping.

Sentinel-2 or Landsat satellite data for high-resolution imagery.

Example Workflow:

Process satellite data using Google Earth Engine.

Identify tree clusters using image segmentation.

Generate geolocations and pass data into the backend.

Phase 3: IoT Sensor Integration

Deploy IoT devices to monitor health metrics of specific high-priority trees.

Use MQTT protocol for real-time data transmission.

Code Snippet: Sensor Data Processing (Node.js)

const mqtt = require('mqtt'); const client = mqtt.connect('mqtt://broker.hivemq.com');

client.on('connect', () => { console.log('Connected to MQTT Broker'); client.subscribe('tree/sensor_data'); });

client.on('message', (topic, message) => { const sensorData = JSON.parse(message.toString()); console.log(Received data: ${JSON.stringify(sensorData)}); // Save data to database (Example for PostgreSQL) saveToDatabase(sensorData); });

function saveToDatabase(data) { const query = INSERT INTO tree_sensors (tree_id, soil_moisture, air_quality, temperature) VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4) ; const values = [data.tree_id, data.soil_moisture, data.air_quality, data.temperature]; dbClient.query(query, values, (err) => { if (err) console.error('Error saving to database', err); else console.log('Sensor data saved successfully!'); }); }

Phase 4: Public Portal Development

Frontend Technologies:

React.js or Vue.js for interactive user interfaces.

Mapbox or Leaflet.js for tree visualization on maps.

Features:

Interactive tree maps with search functionality.

User registration for tree adoption programs.

Deployment Plan

Use Docker to containerize the application.

Deploy on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud for scalability.

Monitor system health using Prometheus and Grafana.

Next Steps

Develop a testing environment for pilot deployment.

Add AI-based disease detection and prediction using TensorFlow or PyTorch.

Create an adoption feature where citizens can adopt trees and track their health.

Would you like me to set up a GitHub repository with this initial framework or assist further with deployment?

I'll prepare the project framework and outline the repository structure for the Tree Citizenship Identification System. Below is the proposed structure for the repository, followed by details of the files and components.
