Pull up a stool, slam dancing render masters...

If Durant wants a water tight model then here is a .stl (with certificate of trust) and .fbx (for the hard core Max user)
-
"maybe Durant can explain in simple sentences and we may be able to help better?"
Yes pete, because if Durant has animation in mind (for example), he is completely lost.Still waiting someone to show a UV mapped model.
-
Never mind, modelhead, the problem with textures will be there.
-
I used Deep exploration, what did you use?
-
bonzai3d doesn't seem to have a problem with it.
-
exported from bonzai3d as .3ds then imported back into SU.

DH,
If you would like to prove that to your Kinko's friend, I would suggest posting one of your stellar, intergalactic, robo porn, mind melting models here so that the community could have a go at rendering them in various programs outside of sketchup. You could then take all of the glossy, shimmering, life like renders to your brown bottle friend and tell him to behold the awesomeness achieved without using any plugins to "fix" anything at all.
I also think that this suggestion by EarthMover, is one of the reasons Durant posted the model, and I sort of hope people rise to the challenge.

Still no UV mapping...
Hmm... I posted a quick render already, I did it, so waiting others to do so...
Because some people claim here that I don't use the right app or so...
Update: the last one "with bricks" has a decent mapping, not real UV though. -

Michalis, there was no mention about UV mapping, why is this such an issue to you?
-
Yes pete, you know better than me. Durant is a great artist (IMO), some possibilities here. Good computing is about 'imputs' and 'outputs'. I don't claim that SU is a bad app. It just 'spoils' us with all these friendly functions. We have to thing about topology, just this.
Now I have the feeling that its more difficult to understand me than Durant.

-
OK, its bonzai then. But please give us a full view, just to see a bad topology's problems. Now you don't want me to post a zbrush preview, do you? This problem is documented in details, search zbrushcentral for this. BTW I managed to UV map this in zbrush (using new UV master plugin). When modeling in SU there is always a different approach. Its possible anyway.
-
Hey modelhead, too offensive... Please don't do this.
"When modeling in SU there is always a different approach. Its possible anyway." Try to understand and to learn something.
I don't have to prove to you or anybody else that I can model fast almost anything in SU. Stop this please. The fact is that Durant has a problem and you don't really help him. -
is this what you wanted to see?
-
Please xrok1, give us a nice texture, but bonzai app looks capable to do it. Thats good. I'm wandering though, this texture looks weird. You know what UV mapping is, do you?
-
B&S,
Bring it in.
What the small blue lettering says is, "Single poly with many more then 4 sides."
Whatever the Jack -- I understand that this is a drag.

OK durant, you understand the problem.
The magic wang, out of the magic castle, in plain sunlight, its just a wang, its a piece of wood. (after Wittgenstein)
Its a possibility though, to lead us to a possible magic castle. Think about it. -
Brothers and Sisters,
Bring it the bird on Jack?
Oh, and make it a 3D jackal mechanical bird.
So, I'm about to pour a few for you all, and I do so wish I could e-mail them cold and all through to you.
At the close of the day, I trust in good will -- the support of the persons who are bringing it, and the freedom to do so.
The insight and thoughts are very much like quality Porn to this Jacking bird of pray.
What is Big Ape Cobb Kinko's all about doing for me?
This has yet to show up, but Ape Cobb is a quiet bundle of info, so I'm not always feeling I'm understanding what his action is all about.
Before I go there, what am I doing?
Ape Cobb is showing me some images that are like car engines floating in these strange locations, and yeah, some are really floating with animation.
They are turning and spinning with blur and some have fire coming out of them -- not much like a game, more like they are on strings -- very real -- lots of detail.
Bring that, I need a camel, and a new trip out the back to enjoy.
Bounce over here, Mr. Ape Cobb and click me up a storm of quality animation.
As clear as this, he uses Maya and some other zbrush, 3dsmax, and from what I under stand that ZboneBrush ain't playing nice with our boy SU.
So, I just want to have my action -- my models -- all floating around like that with some meat puppets perhaps or glossy curves all effected with heat waves.
Ape Cobb says, "No, go, SketchUp..."
I posted said model of "landing foot" for inspection as I felt it might be crack or built in a manner that was most annoying.
I have more from AC, but will need to make a call, and will be back.

Brothers and Sisters,
Bring me a big Jack snow ball, and a paper cone.
Last of the punches is this bit of "what?"

That G looks exactly like the one I converted straight to .stl using Deep exploration.
