        Not bad for a first attempt. It's half under ground (the red and green axes are on the ground plane) and I saw some of the mullion strips in the windows seem to be off axis. Good start, though. Keep plugging away.

          I have to warn you, SketchUp is highly addictive, and may cause extreme sleep loss. parental discretion is advised. πŸ˜„
          Seriously, great first work.
          Cheers

          Just monkeying around....like Monsanto

            Hi Mate, yes it is good for a first time. Just a few things that may help:

            Attention to detail the insets in the doors are about 3 times the depth of what they would be on the real ( the irony of "real" is not lost on me) Tardis

            The other thing is the type on the Tardis is 3d this can be done better by projecting text onto the surface or easier do the type, in say, Paint, match background colour crop, and simply import it. file/import.......

            I am asuming you are an Aussie by the St Johns logo, like the man said future addict here πŸ˜‰

            Good luck!!
