Awesome work! The art of low poly modeling at its best!
As Antoine de Saint-Exupery once said: A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.i love this guy - from "wind, sand and stars":
"It is as if there were a natural law which ordained that to achieve this end, to refine the curve of a piece of furniture, or a ship's keel, or the fuselage of an airplane, until gradually it partakes of the elementary purity of the curve of a human breast or shoulder, there must be the experimentation of several generations of craftsmen. In anything at all, perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness"now i know where the inspiration for all these boats / planes / cows come from!

Hi Alan,
this cow and pigs are very beautiful.
I found on the warehouse of your cows much less realistic: the plastic inflated seemed.
You put at the disposal of all your animals?
Thanks
David -
They are amazing Alan and very realistic. Great work
-
Bravo! Nice to see someone taking the time a care like this. I've got quite a big soft spot for cows... Great work.

Thanks guys...they've started breeding.
I'm learning to love HDR environment maps. It sure beats arranging a ton of scenery.

http://www.1001fonts.com/font_details.html?font_id=2581Ah yes...I have that one too. Grant Marshall developed it based on his Dad's architectural hand lettering. I wonder what he's up to these days? he used to be a prolific contributor to the original @Last forum, but gave up SU years ago in favour of Modo.
I loved the watercolour effects he used to get from his models.

To quote from his 'marshallarts' site
@unknownuser said:Recently, he has devoted more time and energy to woodturning and found the opportunities for self-expression more accessible due to the immediacy and simplicity of the process.

Hi,
With which software have you textured your models (except photoshop)
And sorry for my English speaking, I'm french.
But over all: Great work ! -

Grant Marshall Watercolor Effect This was a few years old...
oh and Pen and Ink Style by Grant. Supper modeling and texturing Alan! -
Since I have retired I don't use SketchUp much anymore, but I visit the forum everyday. Starting way back at version 2, I was inspired by the work of Alan and Grant Marshall. In my mind, their contributions to the community were beyond compare. I shamlessly copied Grant's watercolor technique -- the best ever by far. And made use of Alan's models and techniques everyday. And had the privilege of actually meeting Alan at BaseCamp 2005. If we had a SU hall of fame, they would be at the very top.

Thank you, Paul; that's very kind of you. But you neglected to mention that you were also one of the presenters at that first ever 'clan gathering'. You've done a sizeable amount of envelope-pushing yourself.
I hope you're enjoying your retirement.
