      hello, I'm new to the forum and just started sketchup.
      The cubist drawing I can. But how do I get beautiful shapes? Can someone help me?

      Thanks. Raoul

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

            Do you want to make him in 2D or 3D? Are you familiar with plugins?

            If you want to model the character in 3D then Artisan would probably be the way to go. It does cost a little bit of money but from what I've heard, it is more than well worth the money. Pete (Solo) would be your guy for this if you take it on and have any questions. Good luck. πŸ˜‰

            I'll also give you some links to just a few really great plugins (most of them free) that have at least something to do with organic shapes in general. Take a look at them and use as you have need.

            Whaat's Artisan
            Fredo6's FredoScale
            CPhillips' SketchyFFD
            Chris Fulmer's Shape Bender
            TIG's ExtrudeTools
            Fredo6's RoundCorner
            Fredo6's Tools on Surface
            Fredo6's Joint Push Pull

            Of course, these are just a few and there are many others you will most likely come across while using and discovering SketchUp. Best of luck! πŸ˜„
