It’s a very colourful way of saying that you’re by far the best.

Yeah. For example, a "curbstomp battle" is where one side crushes the other in no time and with little effort.

[efferman]

iam not so good as you think.

btw

only the brickbuilt bucket is missing and only 3715 parts included

[Richombx]

So you will have 300 original pieces left over but how many new parts will need to be ordered to complete your modifications?

[efferman]

I still have to make the brickbuilt bucket and then try to reduce the needed extra parts. give me a few days

[efferman]

ok,

4108 Parts in set, 4001 parts including new undercarriage, 494 leftover parts from Set = 387 extra parts

Looks fabulous @efferman!  Your MODs are the equivalent of a Pimp my Liebherr edition ...

My bucket has been shipped by shapeways, can’t wait to see it. Hopefully it’s not hard to find a paint to match dark stone grey

Ok so other stuff has to be made by shapeways?

[efferman]

no, the file is only for playing in stud.io

[Richombx]

Dulux has a basalt grey that looks rough enough to match the color hopefully. Should have the bucket in the next two weeks

[efferman]

Step 133 and the undercarriage is divided. Hopefully stud.io gets a update with set as origin in the instruction mode. On big models some points are hard to see when everything rotates around the same point.

[efferman]

Step 343 and the undercarriage is married with the boomless uppercarriage.

[Richombx]

Must be getting very close to seeing all your hard work done

[efferman]

There is still a lot to do, even the cable routing needs a lot of time

Interesting cable generation method... I would suggest to make your segments a tad longer than needed to avoid the gaps (Studio renderer shrinks a bit everything to create fake seams between bricks)
