      NEW IMAGES AT BOTTOM OF THREAD

      scheme-a-2-1600.jpgscheme-a-1-1600.jpgA model of a home my company is currently building.

      su+podium+photoshop elements

      I will post some images of the home during construction.

      If any of you have images of models and the finished
      real world building I think it would be interesting to
      see them posted side by side.

      I am in the process of doing just that with past and
      present projects and will post them as I get them ready.

          Solo,
          Thanks.

          As for the images you directed me towards...
          Wow!
          I am not surprised though, I have eyeballed your stuff
          here and on other forums and it is always as good as it gets.

                                  Thought I would mention that the working drawings shown in the photo above of the
                                  elevations were generated with the su model. I exported elevation views
                                  from sketchup in dwg format, then opened them with Archicad to do the notes and hatching
                                  and such. The su model export is surprisingly clean and works well for blocking
                                  out the elevations.

                                  FYI

                                    Funny thing, I was on a clients construction site last week as they are building a project I did the visuals for, anyway I sent him the model a while back and he sent it to his framer who knew enough about SU to take it into layout and setup/print so that he was able to build from plans he got from SU (the stair details). I thought that was awesome, as framers I usually deal with can only see 2D and SU models scare them, he was talking about getting SU on his ipad for future jobs, I could not comment as I was not sure it's even possible.

                                      Wow! Hopefully not too many framers will learn...I will be out of a job.

                                      Sketch up is actually a very good fit for framers if they can get over the
                                      technology hump. Modeling details is about as real world as it gets without making
                                      sawdust.
                                      I see a day when there are large screen interactive displays on the job site
                                      for the tradesman to work from. Real time conferencing between the office and the
                                      job site. Really...I beleive this will happen, even in the residential field.
                                      (Hammer proof screens and input devices will be a must.)

                                        This thread started a little over a year ago. At that time I promised
                                        a finished photo of the home.

                                        Here it is. Our clients are settled in and happy.The renderFinished Home

                                        I have three other threads that were started about the same time a year or so ago and each one of those are being finished up.
                                        I will post those finished shots as well.

                                        Thanks for your interest and comments along the way.

                                            Very inspiring! Renderings that look like photos and photos that look like rendering. Beautiful house (and site!).

                                            In regards to framers, I once had a contractor take my 2D CAD file and develop 3D framing plans with connectors and all. He said he always models before he builds.

                                            Thanks for the notes on SU to working drawings workflow. Always helpful to see what others are doing.

                                            Thanks for posting,
