Why is sketchup still so slow?
At the base it's a "Box modeler", not a "Subdivison Modeler" and it has so many other things to manage!
Sure for this sort of things SU can't fight with ZB, Wings3D, Blender.. but it has a so sweet ergonomy!

Lovely Rich. Did you vectorize a texture or something?

I know I know, that's why I can't stop using it.

Thomthom's HeightMap to Mesh plugin on a 64px x 64px .bmp
Tried a 208px x 208px first but it buckled SU.
-
Oh yeah, great little plugin. Isn't there a plugin/algorithm to subdivide a face into these shapes? I'll look into some other techniques to achieve this. Imagine a Voronoi TOS

TIG's elegantly named Quadrilatelizer (which has a scrabble score of 968 with three triple word bonuses and bonus for all letters used) can generate a funky yet consistent results.
-
Thought so!
Gonna give it a whirl now.There seems to be a grasshopper workflow I may look into as well.
-
You need the patient of a saint to wait while SU crunches numbers....not worth the effort though....

-
Here's my go. Much better than Rich's

Yes but that is only quads!
Seems you have not only quads!
So what is your secret ?

That's plagiarism

The Voro method by Mattc is fine but you must click twice the same number of faces!
-
Yours is a lot better...and great render.

One for draw a point, one for apply the plug on each points!
Of course I can use the Manifold Lab of Wings 3D but that is cheating!
-
Looking great Oli.
-
Tell me how!!! Cryptic! I can do this in Wings but I don't want to. You see from the video just how easy a subdivision in Wings can be!! The only problem is how many iterations before it will import into SU!
This is what I was doing last night. Anyone remember Podium 1.7?
and a splice!

Massimo, spill the beans please! how did you achieve your design?
For my first lamp I used the bulb from your FLY Lamp. Yes I was lazy enough to borrow a sphere!

Well I was HEAVILY helped by Rich...
Seriously I just messed by accident with posts, that's Rich's model not mine. -
