        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.

        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.

              More chairs.

                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.

                        Thanks guys, Yes these are all 100% SU modeled.

                        Here are a few more as I am at a waiting point with a project.

                          Still in awe Pete.

                          That second chair above immediately reminded me of the Haunted Mansion seats at Disney (Florida).

                          Cool stuff.

                              Thanks guys, just goofing around still, must say I am accumulating a rather large chair library with this.

                                  Mister S, of modeling mayhem,

                                  Been to the Big D Bazar?

                                  They still holding that action in your neck of the woods?

                                  I went to that first monday deal around there once... Almost got heat stroke.

                                  Had to take a sit on a log, and a massive bunch of Jack bird ants came a calling...

                                  Went all Rodeo on my down town action....

                                  I've been looking for a new couch, and this looks like it.

                                  I'm guessing from the material and shape that you can hose it off after a late night of "getting a license to drive."

                                  Oh, well, I have a window that will allow me to bring in the hose, so I will take it.

                                    Now that would be a nice design for a garden bench, with the end pieces serving as impromptu table surfaces for snacks and drinks. I'll bet Joe Wood could whip one of those up in a jiffy... πŸ’š
