#78 TIPS: Anti-studs

Anti-studs are the indents you can find on the underside of all bricks plates. There are two different depths of anti-studs; those in bricks and in plates, but perform the same role of attaching bricks and plates together.

In most builds, the anti-studs are hidden as the model is displayed with only studs facing upwards. However, some builders choose to have the anti-studs in plain sight and like the texture while others prefer to hide it with studs or tiles. An easy way to tile the anti-studs is the 2X2 INVERTED FLAT TILE, which can be placed to give a smooth texture.
