Most impressive SketchUp modelling

Here are a few more photos of JMJ-Ohio's amazing work.

Below are a few shots of the '32 Ford Highboy he is building to house his fantastic engine. It's still a work in progress.

If you put your ear to the screen, you can actually hear it running

I tried that - burned my ear on the exhaust pipe

Just amazing stuff everyone. I hope I can be half that good some day.

I like your third image, so nice.

a for both of the last two (Tadema and Axeonalias)! Definitely two of the greatest examples! Peter

made by Axeonalias

Just had to submit these, a Honda CT70 motorcycle created by unigami. Incredible detail!

Sorry for the big pictures I couldn't resize them with the HTML code.

Here are some awesome spaceships done by Scifiwarships. http://scifiwarships.blogspot.com/view/flipcard

Wow, I'll bet this guy sleeps in a spacesuit with a phaser under his pillow I'm not really into spacecraft that much but these are some of the best I've seen. He doesn't go overboard with the details like some I've seen, they are clean and very well thought out.

The video tutorial on post processing is excellent, I've only watched about 6 minutes of it and already I've learned a lot.

Thanks for posting this Marian

[Marian]

Yeah he is pretty amazing.

You're welcome

I'm not into post-process rendering, but that was impressive. I watched about 50% (fast fwd through repetitive stuff) and that was an education in itself. I'm a big fan of layers in SU, but using layers like he did in post was an eye opener, and for what little of that I do in my photoeditor, I will be using layers to edit.

OK, this isn't SU modeling.

I was on the net researching Planetary Gear Drives and computing their ratios, when I found this link.

It gave me the calcs I needed, but then later I started to explore some of the links on the page, and a few hours later, I'm here.

Go to this page, go 1/2 way down and click on "Planetary Gear Drive" or any of the links on page bottom, go watch some videos and be amazed.

And my SU model in part....... (resulting from that research)

Attached are 4 pics of the gearbox for an actuator I'm working on on my big airplane project.
(Straight from SU, no post rendering)

That stuff from Scifiwarships is really awesome -- highly render-able too, this a is try out of Maxwell and you can see his stuff really is ready to go.

Thank-you for the heads up, I'll be keeping an eye on him.

Best,
Jason.

You're welcome, he's awesome and by the way nice render.

Hi all...
Just wondering...are there any amazing designs that created just by using pure google sketchup (without additional plugins).

I am a newbie here, so my question might look stupid.
