        Absolutely fantastic stuff as always Pete. I especially like the playroom chair. However it looks as though its made of hard plastic. Good for wiping away those accidental 'spills' but maybe not so comfortable to jump around on. Maybe a leather finish would be more appropriate?

        Sorry, it doesn't seem right giving criticism to one of the SU masters πŸ˜•

          Thanks guys,

          Stinkie, I used Vue for those last ones. Funny enough I recently did a few illustrations and covers for two books, one a humorous look at road rage and the other a childrens drawing and crafts book. Maybe one day I will have the nerve and support to do my own.

          Anyway, doodling again but this time I have got pending projects but needed the break.

            I felt a bit like that too, though I think the better we are the more we realise any room for improvement! I think pete seems mature and confident enough to not take offence to suggestion but to crave for it!

                  I'm fairly certain that if you did a book on SU & rendering, it would be a success. You know your stuff, got a plethora of great techniques - and there's a personal tone to what you write. You wouldn't even need a ghostwriter, an editor would do.

                  Keep in mind also, that both Chopra's and Roskes' books, great as they are (I enjoyed reading their stuff), are limited, as they solely focus on SU.

                  Okay. Enough OT-ing from me.

                        Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I am not yet on their level to be even considering such endeavors.

                        More chairs.

                          WOW! Those are some really nifty looking pieces of furniture! I'm quite fond of the red bench design there, By the way, excuse my ignorance, but what method did you use to making these in SketchUp?

                          P.S. +2 on the book.

                                  Thanks guys, Yes these are all 100% SU modeled.

                                    Still in awe Pete.

                                    That second chair above immediately reminded me of the Haunted Mansion seats at Disney (Florida).

                                    Cool stuff.

                                            Mister S, of modeling mayhem,

                                            Been to the Big D Bazar?

                                            They still holding that action in your neck of the woods?

                                            I went to that first monday deal around there once... Almost got heat stroke.

                                            Had to take a sit on a log, and a massive bunch of Jack bird ants came a calling...

                                            Went all Rodeo on my down town action....

                                            I've been looking for a new couch, and this looks like it.

                                            I'm guessing from the material and shape that you can hose it off after a late night of "getting a license to drive."

                                            Oh, well, I have a window that will allow me to bring in the hose, so I will take it.
