Absolutely beautiful work. Thanks so much for sharing this, and for showing the progression in development. Im a newbie, but this really demonstrates what is possible.

Not much more to say. Thanks again for sharing, especially the process, really helps. Your machine must be a beast!
-
so rad!
i have a question... between image #6 and #7 of your process - there is a huge jump in level of detail. how did you do it?
again, really inspirational work. sketchup needs someone to really push the boundaries of the app. and show others what it can do!
keep rockin' it!

Big Blasting Silver,
My arrival here this morning is clouded by last nights beer, however the Jack bird hat must come off to you as I squint.
Bring that action, and have a sandwich.
Have a par of sandwiches and a big tall boy... And some ice for a chaser.
Rocking get a bit of pleasure lotions and get lubricated, take the day, and have a killer lay down rest.
Wondering about your experiences with Maxwell...
You use the SU plug in, or export obj to bring that action in...
Did I just hammer that out?
Did I tickle the lettered teeth in such a manner?
Jack bird light it up Mr. SS.

The system im using is not also a monster of a machine.
dual core 3.4 intel
intel motherboard with 667 ddr ram (2gb)
geforce 8600gt 256mb graphics card
But would love a faster machine to speed up rendering times hee hee -
i understand Coen.(sigh, you guys are really rubbing this in my face)
I did not meant it to sound like that, but merely that im back with another model. no to brag
Between step 6 to 7 i did a lot of work on one file and did not keeptabs on those days that passed, my bad.
About maxwell, i did not set up specail materials in skp, just named them so i can change them once they are in maxwell. I used maxwell studio to work on those textures till im happy and just rendered...the rest is basic photoshop work with the output file.
To all those ive offended, saying what i did not meant to say, ill re think my wods carefully next time...my bad
i'm also upset how you guys reacted about it, making me feel i dont wanna post future candy models. i'm only very passionate about modelling.
I do not go and say whaaaaa im better than you... i do not have a personality problem, just merely want to share something that is really close to my heart and inspire others to push their sketchup the limits -
get a hug Silver and return¡¡¡
-
but to those who loved this..thanx a lot, it really means a lot to me
madllama : those last 3 images are photomerges. The helicopters are renders, with a little bit of dirt on it put onto photos i have found on the internet -
What astounding work. And thanks for sharing your methods. Please post more.
-
...I'm speechless.
-
Great work!
-
dont' worry about the criticism. its amazing work! I for one am excited each time you post...so ya, I am very glad you posted and will wait for the next!
-
More praise indeed, if a bit belated. Hope Google showcases your work.
-
No worries, Jacques. You can be proud of this, even out loud - hell, I'd be. Well done, and ... keep posting.
-
Yeah...keep on trucking (posting)!
-
Thanks for posting your machine specs. I was just getting ready to ask when I read that. It's encouraging to know that you can do really exceptional work w/o a beast of a computer. I'm actually running the same thing except an 8800 graphics card.
How about your file size 30 Mb is a big file but not terribly unreasonable once you get into a lot of detail. Any special tricks on saving space?

Brothers, and Sisters,
Tipping a few, having a sandwich, and getting set to "push it" with some of the local curves.
What about kicking it? Yeah, it's on.
You feeling me?
Yeah, it's on, and so am I.
So, Jack bird showed this love copter to the big Sam, and she's all "no way, I want that, tell this Silver Monster Singer he's got all the mad skills... I'd do him!"
"Do me," was my reaction to that, but she's an excitable girl, and wondered what was what with all that (not always into my scribbling, but this looks "like the stuff my brother would build").
"What was what," meaning, what does one do with such a fine model... copter?
Love it, baby, that's what I told her -- a bit heavy for gaming, or VFX, I'm suspecting, but detail is a marvel, and building boats in a digital bottle is always a "bring it" kind of a deal.
There was this one dude, quite a mad carver of all manner of wood, that full on carved this crazy Jack bird Lincoln funeral train action, and it's mad cool.
Dudes named "Mooney" I think, and yeah, Samantha partied with the blade slinger.
Check it here:
Sam will some times great me with, "You glad to see me, DH?"
I always tell her "sure."
She's a fun girl.

Man this stuff is seriously wrong!! I'm amazed, the detail, the skill, the patience!!!!!
Bring it on brag all you like mate!!! When you can do stuff like this swing the d... as much as you want in my view!
Mate even Durant's big Sam loves it - so dam it's got to be good!
BTW 5 pages of posts in two days sounds like praise to me!!

hi guys, thanx for the support.
tips and tricks, maybe youll all know about this already, i mirrored the one side, so its half of an component grouped together.
the parts that will not be mirrored and must be unique will be in that group. components save space. I think sketchup reads it as one boject..so having 20 of the same thing in groups will tkae up more space than having 20 of one component
Durant Hapke, nice model train. Its mindblowing to see all that build out of woood, really amazing
