        Nice one kwist, did you texture the model as well? if so very impressive, if not very impressive.

        Good choice of music as well, id watch the vid a few times just for that 👍

          I thought it was a bit unlikely, but great job anyway.

            Thanks guys. 😄

            @Remus: I didn't texture the 'friend' model myself. As you know, sketchup just does not have the tools for this kind of texturing unfortunately. Still waiting for Whaat to come up with an improved texturing/Uv map tool.(yes , that is a request 😉 )
            I think a lot of people would love that, even if it would be a commercial script.

              I hope this isnt too OT, but theres a pretty interesting debate here about nudity in art.

              Makes for interesting browsing.

                Well I guess normal people can see the difference between an expression of creativity and pron.
                It is all about context.
                (I hope this thread does not evolve into some moral discussion though)

                    Very well done, how did you manage to render a movie from indigo in one night with indigo?
                    I would have thought one frame would take about that time to reduce the noise!
                    Liked the music as well, can you let us know who it was?

                    Regards,
                    JGA

                      I let each animation frame render for 2 minutes .
                      In reality it took close to 3 minutes per frame, as for each frame a little 'warming up' time is required.
                      I used a 8 core Mac Pro which is a pretty fast rendering machine. Also rendering low res (below 640X480) and avoiding complex materials (glossiness, bump etc..) does speed up the process.

                            I never got the video to work, but I am guessing that there was some sort of nudity in it base on the comments.

                            Please if you post any nudity, at least add [nudity] in the title of the post. Then those of us who prefer to not stumble across it - porn or art - don't have to, thanks!

                                    yeah, yeah.... 😒
                                    Actually I don't want to do that as it spoils the concept of surprise (who are my 'imaginary friends'?) but if it makes you happy, consider it done .

                                      Credits for making the .3ds woman model go to Claude Fayette, who posted the character at archive3d.net.

                                        nice...can you explain in detail how you got the model textured? When i try to import the models, the textures don't come into SketchUp.

                                          I believe in this case (=the woman model from archive3d.net) it is impossible to import a .3ds import straight to Sketchup while holding the original uv-sets.

                                          Therefore I used an ancient 3dsMax version to assign the textures in the folder to the model.
                                          The updated .3ds model with textures in place imports better in SU.

                                          You could also use software like Deep Exploration for that. It is very expensive though.
                                          I wish Sketchup would have a much more enhanced import function, both for .3ds as for .obj (including .mtl files).
                                          But I guess it is no use wishing for it, as many before me already have, some Su versions ago....

                                            Truly awesome stuff mate!! You truly are an artist in every aspect of it's meaning!!!!!

                                            Seriously mate your work always inspires me at every level! You keep me wanting to do better and better!!!

                                            I must say and not trying to get on the moral issue here, I think you managed to be rather restrained just enough to not raise the eye brows of those who may be insulted. Heck if I had done something similar I would be banned from the forums - my dreams are obviously a bit more explicit!!! 😉. I'd have to download a demo of RealFlow!

                                            Interested if you could give just a little bit of an overview of your workflow from SU to indigo animation, and then how you render out each frame?
