Fymoro this is beautiful work. You mentioned that you merged the files in Thea. Do you have a project on the forum that show this process? That is a fast setup! This is a really nice interior.
Basic import, save, merge tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8if5gQCn7hE
Use four view (alt + 0) for easier model placing.
So after a very long time of inactivity im finally back to work, so heres a very small update.

As you might guess, I'm working on the Turret part of the tank now. Have a great weekend everyone!

I think this is a well executed example of the effective use of SketchUp to pointedly express a design concept.
Very clearly presented.
Great stuff!
What he said.
The execution is appropriate.

could maybe ask alvis to post a hidden geometry view, might be worth the $3 to explore the details of the model though...
Have at it.
Thanks Peter, we used to hire the boats and spend an hour messing on the river during our dinner hour!
Thanks TIG, I was wondering about the roof, almost straightened it out myself as it looked like a bodge.
Cotty, spot on. Street-view should show it better.

Good way to get your city modeled for Google Earth for free! And first prize is an iPad! come on! it's Qatar! First prize should be a gold brick or a Lamborghini...lol.
This stair leads from the lower road & car park entrance, to the upper Gallery. Maxwell & Sketchup as always SL 21.6. Many thanks to Jason Maranto for helping me with this model. Also my friend Tomasz who converted the EPS file to dwg.

Frederik's diagram on that thread is pretty good and Notareal provides some useful variations, but I thought all the options might be a bit confusing.
Keep in mind that the posted Frederik's diagram is for Kerkythea. Even as models needs to be split a bit similarly in Thea, same diagram does not apply. Use of "Container" is required for correct result. Study Thea example scene GlassOfWater.scn.thea (that you can find under File > Scenes > Examples). Also on said topic it's mentioned that you need to use mouse right click > Assign Interface. "Assign Interface" was replaced in some point with term "Assign Container".

An interocular distance of 1:10 is a good starting camera separation. Compare that to the separation between the distance between your eyes and the length of your arm. It is also very close to 1:10. Then ask yourself at what distance 3D vision would have been important in a million years of human evolution. Until very recently the length of your arm was the distance at which humans interacted with their physical surroundings so you did not need or could not use stronger interocular separation.
I think there is something related to tree dwelling and swinging between branches No really don't we share much of our visual development with the other primates? Then there was a long period of bipedal evolution. We also have better long distance vision in general than many animals, some of whom seem to depend on movement to really see something in the landscape beyond their (very acute) noses. Thanks for the observations.
