Chibi Eyebrows

Just some photos showing the trick behind chibi’s thin eyebrows. It must be noted that, technically speaking, two stacked cheese slopes do not fit in a 1x1 square. They have to release some stack height by moving to the sides.

 

Left:

The typical configuration. None of the cheese slopes is connected.

The neighboring bricks imprison the cheese slopes and keep them in position. The small gaps between bricks (left & right) allows the cheese slopes to release stack height.

 

Center:

Another common configuration: One cheese slope is connected: Usually the top one, which also keeps the lower one in position.

The clearance for the bottom slope is tight, but still valid.

However, depending on the chibi’s internal structure, this configuration may not work. This usually happens when snot techniques are used intensively. Snot techniques can easily disrupt the clearances between bricks.

 

Right:

Similar to center, but extra clearance is provided by using a lamp holder plate.
