Scifi Sketchup Modeling
-
Killer work as usual Liam.
-
Really nice work.
How do you make the organic shape of the model? -
this should be inserted into Microsoft Flight, Lock-on Flaming Cliffs 2 or X-Plane... would love to fly it.

This shape is much smoother than usual luckily I have been able to use the new Artisan plugin for subdivision and smoothing.@krisidious said:

Already on it, have somebody working on it for me, or me for them? anyway hopefully have a fully working model within the year for FSX.

Well keep your eyes and ears about the forum I am sure more details will be released soon.
-
Have to take a break from personal projects for a few weeks now have to many live briefs to finish. Here is one I need to get boxed off asap, its a city for a video game so far I just have the plans and will have to build upon that.
-
Ooh. Looking forward to seeing this one.
-
So am I, cant wait for it to be in the game and blow it up! Just edited a space elevator I made for fun a few years ago and started working on the city blocks skyscrapers etc. They dont look detailed and they are not but its going in a game so it cant be too huge, the textures will make short work of it im sure and make it look great! Plus the model wil be absolutely huge!
-
Ah sick of the push pull tool and still so many city blocks to do!
If only I had a plugin for this!!
-
There is.....
-
If its the city generator or the other one I tired them already didnt work, although it looks random its not the buildings slowly get higher towards the centre, although I guess im missing a real obvious one so please share before I try to attempt to do the other three blocks manually
-
Have you tried....
-
Thanks Pilou and Rich I have got all of these except compo spray ill check it out. I had forgotten about greeble actually haven't used it in a ling time I found it very fiddly and trial and error ill have a look into it tomorrow. Maybe no need to use a plugin after all as the building district is nearly complete.
-
You can't use Compo Spray by Didier Bur?
That's allow you 8 modules and no supperposition, and some parameters so making a town is a game boy
And you can use it as a fractal process
Make 8 little towns with it and take these 8 little towns as module
etc
in a minute you have a new universe !
Also Protrude by Jim Foltz but more randomly result
-
Still a bit of a sketchup newbie but here are some of the sets I'm building for my next comic.
-
Oops , sorry Liam just realised this seems more like a section for your stuff thought it was just a place for sci fi models. Do you want me to move it?
-
No please keep them im hapy for anybody to post anything scifi in here, in truth I wish more people would but I think they are put off by the unwritten rule of thread hi=jacking.
im sure I have seen your work before that last image is familiar in my mind, have i seen another version painted over?EDIT:
Now I know where I have seen you before http://dylansdrawingboard.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2010-11-22T02;20;00-08;00 your work is truly awesome! Cintiq is next on my list how do you find it to your digital drawing, im using a Intuos3 A5 wide (I find the smaller working space easier and more accurate than the A4) but am looking to upgrade. With a student discount I can get one for £1000 still pricey tho. -
You are starting with a city and maybe you can finish with a planet!
A work worthy of Atlas!
