If you review what you did you'll see the issue. Painting groups is not the same as painting geometry. You shouldn't paint containers.

OK, local emergencies aside, some time to look into moving this forwards and hoo nose, finish it maybe. I will have to change up the dragon and some geometry is proving to challenge rolled marbles. [image: 1765331140522-4-1000s-1909-x-984-777578tri-17s-gpu.png]

Wow, looking awesome!

OK, had an issue with what seemed to be lost textures but, was a return to back face issues. Something I have not seen for a while now. Probably a Rayscaper issue but not the end of the world, I usually check these things as a rule. This one bloody unit was an import and I missed the use of back face in one cabinet door. Anyway, the downstairs is cramped but not really that tight when seating is deflated/stored and the folding dining table/chairs can be brought out for a meal with friends. A drop down cinema type screen for film night with snacks easily catered for. Hot water is as designed via a Quooker type system to save space and improve economy. Heating via passive home and possibly a ground pump but passive should not need that really. Shower is electric and solar panels on the roof to power it. A pull out drawer under the stairs for batteries. No boiler, gas or electric will save space and energy uptake. I am considering uploading the bare bones as a challenge but, more on that later.

Superb work Ritch, I cannot fault it

@tuna1957 That is a common theme for most of us I believe. I go a bit cold when a model frustrates or I just lose motivation. Later I go on and try again.

Sorry, wanting to see how closely, or not, the photoreal mat setting in Sketchup can approximate to a render. Not too badly for folk who do not want the added complexity of a render program. Approximating a studio might prove useful. Curiosity alone.

The spooks are gone... ? What the Freaky Friday etc. Better call Scummy and Mouldy.

@Gus-R Thanks for the explanation, looks great.

I do not have a smart phone, it matches me for stoopid and I use it as a phone only. I am sure there are folk here with a Whyphone who can describe the process. I found this with a brief search. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/iph864a938de/ios

@L-i-am i built it. It's about 15 components just arrayed around

Fair enuff, please remind me how, I am xtra thick this week.

This is something like the end result I am looking for. [image: 1756254625797-10-1000s-2067-x-1192-5618917-tri-25s-gpu-resized.png]

Thanks mate.

I saw this my immediate thought tha having a two car garage in this day and age would be a practical but quickly realised that having a double garage door on the frontage would not work with the proportions of a Craftsman home. Very nicely done mate you nailed this

IMPRESSIVE!!!!

Thanks guys. Matisse would work but I was thinking Bierstadt.

Hey Gus, nice indeed mate. I wonder what it would look like with https://fotosketcher.com/
