      I read a post at the Unity3d's forum where a guy wrote: "I'm tired of using Google sketchup pro 8 cause that can't make anything good."
      I wrote an answer and posted a few great model images I found here, but I started thinking...
      What if we posted the most impressive SketchUp models we've seen. All in this thread. Could be our own or others.
      (With the modelling in focus, not rendering.)

      A collection of the best of the best that would impress most on people that are not aware of SketchUps capabilities.

      I'll start off with the images I posted in my reply to him:

      http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1316/5103560498_14a7943445_b.jpg

      Axeonalias Beam Trawler "Sea Lady"

      http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z316/free_shadow/244.jpg

      Silver shadows HMS Snowberry

      http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z316/free_shadow/alldone.jpg

      Silver shadows The river runs through it.

      That second picture is particularly impressive. Whoever made that is incredible talented, I wish my sketches came out like that.

        Numbthumb's "Acht-achter" cannon definitely deserves to be mentioned here. 😍

                  That is the version used in the Macross:Do you remember love? movie from 1984. The movie is considered canon as a movie inside the original Macross universe...so yeah it's not acurate with the TV series but it is an actual version used in Macross. It is probably more popular because it's a more detailed version than the one in the series. The movie is renowned for it's high quality animation and detailing.

                            i thought why not post a picture of one of my works that i made some time ago.

                              I'll post a few of mine. Although they are nothing SPECTACULAR, they are the best I'VE ever made, and I'm hoping my skills will keep improving.

                              The first is what started off as just a single Pergola segment with a couple benches. But then I added curved corners and a flat roof in the middle and before you knew it I had turned it into a Gazebo as well. A Perzebo maybe?

                              http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/7407/gardenpergolawithbenche.jpg

                              Then on a whim I took away the central roof and attached all the pergola beams together to make a vine trellised peak in the middle. And added plants to the flower boxes.

                              http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/7407/gardenpergolawithbenche.jpg

                              The second is is a Gazebo I made to practice structure building. Then I added a swing to it.

                              http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/483/gazebowithswing20110609.jpg

                                  Hey, thanks Numbthumb, I feel honored to be included in this fantastic collection!
                                  I'm in the process of making some improvements/changes to the car (opening the doors, etc.), getting it ready for the Warehouse. Will post some pics in my WIP thread soon.

                                      compressor (rendered in ArtLantis4)
                                      I recently started to use Sketchup over VectorWorks for 3D models and slowly am getting the hang of it.
                                      Due to the aid of the sketchup community and the discovery of some file plugin's.
                                      As a designer I would like the plugin's to be a bit more consistent what the GUI (graphic user interface) concernce.
                                      But anyway they work and that's also important.

                                      Here is an example of my latest work

                                        Yeah this is a great idea im fed up of people saying how awful sketchup is and not worthy to compete with the other software such as 3ds and maya I have this argument constantly on scifimeshes.com.

                                        I think Im going to make a page on my blog for the best of the best sketchup models feel free to link people to that page as it will be just images thet everybody can view!

                                        And of course ill credit each image with the creator etc

                                        I just came upon Liam's note way at the beginning of this thread so I thought I'd bump it because many people have probably missed his link-- worth a look.
