@andeciuala said: thanks solo... one mor question, where did you maped those textures and maps, sketcup or maxuel? Sketchup! Well, on some I worked a little, but in the end I did it...

"sketcuppers guide to the galaxy"? lol

awesome! quite a bit better than the Brooklyn Machine Works bike i posted on the warehouse earlier this year. Link to the file. It's under the 10mB size too! chris<pixelmonkey>:D

dang it well ill have to get everything made a compenonent i guess..to bring down from 34 mb

sweet, could be very photoreal. I agree about windows. Some PS vignette and gradients would add more depth and give it some punch.

Makes me nostalgic thinking back on uni days...

Another terracotta. Somehow more serious sculpture here, IMO. [image: mfCj_tanagreaApples.jpg]

Nice model, very fine details - this will not be hard to render (if you mean some PR rendering) as the first, most important step is always a good model. Looking forward to the progress!

thanks pete you are a very generous guy.

i was just trying to get some clarification...thats all i mean, who am i to talk.. 75% of my models are formfonts components

It is a really nice image, especially after sid added some post processing. The fog effect looks fantastic.

cool one day will do something different also with this sponza model.. now david is giant and goliath is small and it turns out shooting the tiger.

@stefanq said: WOW Nomer! Another "hit" from you! Excellent! Congrats! thanks again stefan..

thank you very much for taking the time to post this. It's very helpful and there's some beautiful colours. the lime is very nice! cheers

Great unique style. Love it!

Here's a quick modeling, the left imported from SU to blender, (blender produces similar topology after a boolean operation), on the right a different topology without triangles (the good one). This, on the right, doesn't seem to cause these photon problems in render engines. That's why you should expect lighting problems near arcs. See this nice link, kerkythea has some similar problems there. http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=22695 IMHO [image: afZR_Picture1.jpg]

wow really nice and amazing job...

It almost erks me when I see all the options skaters have these days! It would be 32 years ago now at the age of 14 we would each other weekend ride our bikes 20 odd kilometres to skate in a disused pool that had more cracks than jeff's has geometry! Why does the fun just get better later? Nice model Jeff!!!!

I posted this message many months ago. Since then I've been working a lot on this series of movies and I have 3 completed. The 4th will be finished in a week or two. They are mostly created with SketchUp. I also use a video editor and overlay drawings onto the SU backgrounds (Corel VideoStudio and Photoshop). All these movies are at TreasureInside.net All moving characters are done with drawings, with frames about 1 or 2 per second. This gives it a rough look and a very unique style in our world of hi-tech 3d animation. Animation nowadays is often 25 or 30 fps with a full range of colors and details. I hated Antics and stopped using it (uninstalled it!) as soon as I was finished with that first movie, Plain Sight. Content is very hard to work with. Motion is difficult to control. Camera and timeline options are not at all intuitive. I tried other animation software and had big difficulties with all of them. (Of course, someone else may be very successful with a system that I could not learn.) I ended up going back to SU, which I know well and use a lot for my work. The only good thing about Antics (for me) was that I could create elaborate sets and props with SU and then import them into Antics. You can see this in Plain Sight. I created the sets and props for my other movies with SU, just the same. SU has excellent camera animation control. I only had to find a way to animate things on camera. I do this with the overlayed drawings. (And, as you can see, I'm no great artist. I end up with a funky childish doodle that makes a great style.) Joel

love the bed, looks like a book, and the end table.
