Model this: Accelerate sofa
-
What kind of sofa is this? A piece of post-modern art.. but really outstanding..
-
feeling out an approach.. tried it with the scale tool at first but figure it would end up taking a long time fiddling around..
gonna try this approach which took less than ten minutes.. some of the blends may prove difficult but this one is doable for sure.. hopefully 15+ submissions for this thread..
-
Here's a quick stab with SDS. Proxy needs more work, but it's getting there.
-
Here is my first shot. Ok I confess, it is my second shot. I tried this couch about a year ago and gave up too soon. I guess I have learned a few things since then.
-
WIP.. i'll try to finish the back and get more proper scaling tomorrow..
mostly bezier spline and extrude edges by rails
-
Nice work Jeff.
For the proxy I only used native SU tools. Then I ran Subdivide and Smooth, 2 iterations. Then for the lines I "unhid" most then connected others with Tools on Surface, mainly the line; the arc had some funky results.
I added the lines and used a heavy profile as well as depth cue for these.
-
love the lines eric!
mine needs a redraw from scratch to get some of the parts better but i'll pass..
-
Great work!
Boo, could you possible use the 2D tools line styles to add weight to the lines to make them renderable?
-
Not sure. I have not used the 2D tools at all.
-
you could maybe use tools_on_surface offset to make a paintable strip for rendering ?
-
Well the lines are on the model. I just unhid ones that were where they needed to be and used TOS to fill in the gaps. And I also used the knife from SDS to do the lines across the seat and back as the mesh did not align properly.
I can share the model tonight when I get home.

Excellent examples of organic modeling within Sketchup!
-
these are great. well done guys. would love to place one in an interior.
-
Eric,
Thanks for sharing the model. I isolated the lines and ran the convert lines to cylinders plugins at 1/2" and 6 segments. This made the lines renderable. Added to that a quick Sepo pencil overlay.
Unfortunately converting the lines to cylinders also doubled the file size.
-
Great modeling Eric.....nice one Adam

my First attempted

Thanks Sepo.
Nice work WEi.
