@dave r said: Good work. It's nice to see a SketchUp model made real. +2

Not that it really matter, but take a look at the dates... This thread is back from June 2011...

@olishea said: "acidic" is commonly used to describe colours like that. I wasn't saying the image is acidic, but rather the green. Thanks for clarifying Oli. I had not heard that before.

Excellent tip and they have an osx version !

Thanks for the comment Tinanne, i wanted some contrast in the image to give it depth. I didn't consider it dark though perhaps our screens differ.

@edenux said: Overal view is very good. But you should use different materials on walls, ceilings and cabinets. I mean white color. Now it looks, that you only placed a white color, and everything looks like made from colored plaster. And one more thing: in reality it is impossible to make perfect wall, it allways has some scratches and etc. So I recommend using plaster textures on walls, ceiling, and diffrent textures on furniture Thanks for the comments. If this were personal work, I would definitely take more consideration on the wall texture as well as the cabinets, but again, I don't have a large budget for most of these, so I usually have to make them as real as I can given the time and budget. Also, I don't have much say in the selection of materials and finishes as I'm not the one designing these. They are also being used to market projects or sell a client on a particular design so adding imperfections is something the client generally doesn't want to see.

Thanks Dave! I saw that link, but didn't realize those were the SU files. Neat project!

I think it's a good start. I have just a couple of suggestions. I know it was meant to be simplistic, but some pictures or a sculpture on the wall above the bed would be nice. It's so stark. Also, the sheets look plastic rather than comfy and something I want to crawl into to take a nap.

Jason, Go for it! David, It was quite a compliment the first time I saw your renderings and thought, "Hey, I do that!". Hee hee

Cool! Looks like it's walking away or a dog wanting to play. I guess you might want to prototype and test the sitting experience beforehand.

I'm a student of architecture, I need to draw a model of peter eisenman's house VI in archicad, can you please send me this model so I can measure the heights and the distances thank you very much!

thanks for the tips edenux!

well i typically get 24 hours to turn these around, so there are always a million things that can be better! thanks for the helpful commments.

@unknownuser said: Gus, Now, I think I should maybe think about adding a tool to transform a flat contour map into an elevated contour set. Fredo If you manage that, you will be a GOD

has anyone voted for me?

I just purchased my tutorial! It's awesome! Go get yours!

I copied this post to my bookmark so I can click it when I need to get inspired.

Dodge & burn is the way forward. I use it on every sketchup image I do, just to add a little "je ne sais quoi".
