Gotcha...I figured it was something clever. Thanks!

Pete, they are great. I really should try modeling different things in SU rather than sticking at the one dimentional "structures". I tried Artisan but gave up after a couple of hours!

Nice Pete, you are really good at this stuffs with great proportions even with those plugins I bet it's still hard to model them in SU.

Great talent and pure Awesomeness....

Very nice, It is instructive. If you do this again, and remember, show us the raw construction of the detailed parts before you apply Artisian. Thanks for posting.

That all depends on how much detail you want and knowing when to stop.
Asterix took about 2H30, I could fiddle for another 5 hours (as I so often do) but the result would be similar just heavier.

Here is a fast Thea render with feint line overlay.

Dogmatix, around an hour to model, Today being Memorial day (read BBQ day) I had limited time with SU, family demanded my attention...sheesh!

Yeah Solo, I believe it's everyone's problem on this forum. .

I really like your organic SU shapes. Still don't know how you do that. and drawing that fast! very cool

My favorite characters! I have a lot of the books in French.

I am a huge fan of Asterix, Obelix and Idefix. (his French Name!) Nice job.

Solo, time to quit playing around and retire...write that instruction book! If you need an investor I'm in
Think of all the kids (adults too) you can influence with your instructions "drawing cartoons with sketchup". Its a winner!
