Hello everybody,
here are my first works in SketchUP.I look forward to get some feedback from you guys.I'm new to the program, so if you have any advice about plugins which will make my job easier or whatever advice you thing you should give me, please do !EDIT : The thread was originally called "My first designs ;]" but since a year has passed I decided to rename it
Some aircraft with a retro feel
World War II vehicle used for traveling in underground tunnels
Some kind of Sci-Fi Police car
Exploratory vehicle

Hi Mariyan,
Welcome to Sketchucation!
I wish my first SketchUp models were that good.
Just a few comments:
-
I like the aircraft and WWII vehicle better than the sci-fi ones, because you put more thoughts and details in designing them.
-
I'd like to see the same level of details in the sci-fi vehicles. Maybe adding more windows and other little things that make the design more interesting. Right now they seem unfinished.
-
Are you planning on adding textures, materials or colors to them?
-
If it was not done on purpose, you might want to hide the center line so that it looks like one piece instead of two models that are mirrored.
-
Is the Exploratory vehicle floating above the ground?
-
What does the name of the aircraft "sadfghdfsgfs" mean
-
advice about plugins?...well, it really depends on what you are trying to achieve. But Fredo and TIG's plugins are some of the ones I like to use for modeling.
I hope my feedback is somewhat helpful.
Have a good day!

in hight resolution like 1920x1080 or bigger? I like it!

You don't need plugins! ...Well until you start to say "this was too tedious" or "how do I..." These are incredible for first works, and great style!
On the other hand you might browse the plugins area. I think there is a thread "must have" plugins, but mostly I'd look at those that help keep your work clean, save time housekeeping. Then looking at your work, you'd soon want to try some of the organic modelling plugins others mention. But for now you have a great opportunity to understand SU better by using the native tools fully.

Incredible work Mariyan.
I really need to step up my game. (I really need to get Artisan)

Thank you so much for the nice comments guys! Yes ken28875 , I totally agree on absolutely everything which you said and your feedback is really helpful to me.The sci-fi designs were my first ones, so that's why they look so unfinished, I just didn't know how to fix some problems in the modeling process.Right now I'm learning how to render and use textures, so I'm hoping that in the near future I will upload some even more finished pieces.Again, thank you so much guys !
-
Thanks!
Good luck! -
Keep it up!
-
Very cool, Mariyan.
Are you planning on rendering it with colors/textures?
Have a good day!

Thanks ! No, I have no plans rendering the robot.May be when I get more comfortable with modeling I will try to bring my designs to a more finished level.

My advice?
Don't stop.

I'd say it came out very well. Sort of a SF graphic novel effect. Great quality. On the right track. Not sure what else you could have done. Maybe your friends are looking for a PR style? Ask them for examples.
The white dots could be some sort of atmosphere, but it's unclear how they fit in.
The bot looks a little surprised, apprehensive or curious. Would be interesting it was looking at a spider or maybe a puppy.
-
@pbacot - Thank you
! Yeah I should ask them more in depth. The thing about the dots was that I tried to suggest dust particles which glow because they are lit by the red eye of the mecha, although I feel like I went a little bit over the top with that Heh puppy yeah , this is a great idea !! I really, really want to add a puppy, but not sure if it would be up to my abilities. From the start I should have changed the composition.The crop is incredibly strange ..... it suggest that the robot is looking at something but at the same time the composition is almost cut in half.If I add something it would create so much technical problems, I'm not sure if I would be able to finish it.Btw here is a pic of the leg movement, I had some questions how the leg functions

Hello This is my first attempt to bring one of my sketchup models to a more presentable level. I'm really not sure how it turned out, so far the comments I get from family and friends are not very warm. But at the same time they can't tell me whats wrong . So I was wondering if you could give me any feedback.I'm curious what are your thoughts in general about the image. Thanks !
