      Dang, Pete...!! 😲
      These are really good..!! πŸ‘

      Perhaps you should think about being a furniture designer... πŸ˜„
      Or even better - move to Denmark and make some Danish design... πŸ˜‰

          Solo, awesome stuff. This may sound dumb or it may not, but have you ever tried marketing some of these ideas. I think there is a need in the market for original and innovative designs, and your stuff is certainly that, IMO. I really like the rocker chais. Now were these rendered in v-ray or are the a glimpse of something to come? (hint hint) πŸ˜‰

            Not V-Ray, I think. And I'm guessing it ain't P 2.0 either. Looks good, though. More, please.

            I told ya, Pete, you oughta do a children's book. You'd be great at it.

                  Absolutely fantastic stuff as always Pete. I especially like the playroom chair. However it looks as though its made of hard plastic. Good for wiping away those accidental 'spills' but maybe not so comfortable to jump around on. Maybe a leather finish would be more appropriate?

                  Sorry, it doesn't seem right giving criticism to one of the SU masters πŸ˜•

                    Thanks guys,

                    Stinkie, I used Vue for those last ones. Funny enough I recently did a few illustrations and covers for two books, one a humorous look at road rage and the other a childrens drawing and crafts book. Maybe one day I will have the nerve and support to do my own.

                    Anyway, doodling again but this time I have got pending projects but needed the break.

                      I felt a bit like that too, though I think the better we are the more we realise any room for improvement! I think pete seems mature and confident enough to not take offence to suggestion but to crave for it!

                            I'm fairly certain that if you did a book on SU & rendering, it would be a success. You know your stuff, got a plethora of great techniques - and there's a personal tone to what you write. You wouldn't even need a ghostwriter, an editor would do.

                            Keep in mind also, that both Chopra's and Roskes' books, great as they are (I enjoyed reading their stuff), are limited, as they solely focus on SU.

                            Okay. Enough OT-ing from me.

                                  Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I am not yet on their level to be even considering such endeavors.

                                    WOW! Those are some really nifty looking pieces of furniture! I'm quite fond of the red bench design there, By the way, excuse my ignorance, but what method did you use to making these in SketchUp?

                                    P.S. +2 on the book.
