Really impressed with you guys at SketchUcation for stepping up and providing us with a platform to continue or conversations

Thought i would post up some of my private work as i've been going through my PC and achiving my older projects.

These images were completed last year for a client who wanted his companies standard details modelled in 3D. All work completed in Sketchup

Hope you like

A variation on the first detail, this time by the beach!!! (the colour choice wasn't mine )

This one was at the roof junction. There were a number of finer elements to this detail which proved quite time consuming, still enjoyable though

Beautiful. Any chance we could get a copy of your grass?

CraigD · 24 Jan 2008, 19:43

Very nice Andrew!! Really good use of textures/materials and that grass is very cool!

Nice job!

Cheers,

Big A... buddy... friend... pal... that is some sweet stuff there... excellent excellent details... fantastic.

Outrageously cool

you have broken architectural detailing convention. This is exactly what I've been talking about with my colluegues! This is the future - drawing/modeling information that doesn't require a 4 semester course in reading construction drawings!

Nice work
I've saved these to show my co-workers.

The materials are fantastic. Where did you get them from? I definately would love to get a hold of them.

thanks for sharing your model and thoughts.
well done!

Amazing I love it!! I have done several similar details but you took it to the next level!! Two thumbs up.

I don't know what it is about detailed drawings like this, but I absolutely love them. I have been wanting to do some type of a detail drawing in sketchup like this for a while now. Well, I'm going to now, this has inspired me. Great work!

Big A would you mind posting the SU files for these details? I would love to sample the materials you used and see how you modelled these. Let us know!

juju · 24 Jan 2008, 19:46

Rob, I don't think he could seeing that he did it as a comission.

robmoors · 24 Jan 2008, 19:47

Ah thats a shame, I really love them!

Krisidious · 24 Jan 2008, 19:47

JuanV.Soler · 24 Jan 2008, 19:48

do you have anyone to share Kristoff ?

Big A · 24 Jan 2008, 19:52

Hi Guys, thanks for the nice comments

Afraid I cannot post up the entire model as it was produced specifcally for a client. I have attached the grass below for those who wish to use it......a word or advice though, make sure it is the last thing you add to the model as it is VERY heavy, check out the file size!!! its probably not that useful for large scale modelling but helps to add an element of realism.
