Seadoo
-
Today I decided to enter the speed competition by making a jet-ski/seadoo, well as I got going my OCD kicked in and decided to forget the whole speed thing and concentrate on the details. So this model took an hour and a bit longer than the allowed 30 minutes.
Sub-divide, FFD, on surface tools, JPP and a few other rubys were used (without them modeling such subjects would be damned difficult)
16003 edges, 8814 faces with a component size of 1,573kb

One word: Wow!
That's cool. I was thinking about drawing something but I fold.
-
Wow, awesome
How accurate would you say this is though? like could you perfectly recreate the seadoo from blueprints or would there always be a degree of inaccuracy due to the nature of sds being kinda trial and errorish? Really fantastic for pure sketchup though -
Thanks,
Not accurate I'm afraid, I used photos and thumb-suck, I do not have blue prints, and even if I did I would not get accuracy using the rubys.

"An hour and a bit longer..."
Hell, that would take me a week, and I'd have thrown it away and started over three or four times. You are the speed master, for sure!

Pete could you list the rubies defining each with the role that it played in making the model?
Also, would you loosely outline the mental process/workflow that was required.
I am in awe. They say that the things you don't understand are the definition of magic. Looks an awful lot like magic to me.

Amazing solo. About all I can say.

Pete, consider yourself knighted! All Hail! Sir Pete! All Hail!
-
Great modeling Pete!
Looks very realistic to me. -
Great work Pete.
-
I can only agree with what everyone else have said already...
Really GREAT work, Pete..!! -

...for the rest of us...haha
awesome stuff, as usual

LOl not quite.

closer to 2 hours actually, with texturng and rendering it's more like three and a half. -
Pete, I am in true awe by this! I wouldn't have thought SketchUp would be a program that could handle this sort of work. Might I ask, what sort of filesize is this?
P.S. Did you get my PM about the project?
-
Geez Pete. . .
What . . .you didn't add kids on the inner tube behind spraying jet streams of water and Mom on the beach getting a tan sipping a soda. . .What's the matter with you?
-
Wow, that is SOO nice! I would love to see that model ingame in San Andreas, and many other people would too. If you would like that, could you send me the model please? You get the 100% credits etc. blabla I'm only converting it
. I can understand it if you say "No", because it's made for a contest and it's your model so it's your decision what to do with it.Again, very nice model, nice render.. All nice! Omg..
-
Wow, awesome work!

Solo Blaster Pants,
I'm sadly, not into water, as I once had my man dangler and brain sacks nearly eroded out from between my legs when I was once riding featured device.
It was a fall, a bit of a deep water off kind of a deal, and an awful attempt to get back on the ride...
A blasting sun burn, stomach tapped full with cough syrup, and all manner of hot dogs and cold cans didn't help my attempt any.
I had big baggy shorts, not a real suit if I recall... but a bit of a gap at the top that caught the machines blow flow, and created a chilly thick fluid "wind tunnel" effect all about erasing my calking gunner.
So, I'll stay away.
