            Blender and Internal....

            But the text was generated in SU as generating text in Blender causing really bad meshes.

            Some baking and exporting of some 80+scenes before I found a quicker method staring me in the face.. ๐Ÿ˜’

                  You just described every modeling experience I've had with Sketchup so far. Ah, learning.

                        Thanks, Richard, but there is nothing to be ashamed of. There are so many talented artists and architects in this forum and I always enjoy seeing their works. Even though I have been using Sketchup almost every day for the last 12-13 years, I always learn something new by looking at sketchup models that people post in this forum, whether they are experts or beginners. ๐Ÿ˜„

                        Thanks for your interest, Kevin. It took me 3 weeks, working a few hours each night. If you want to see the WIP of the starship, please visit my "sci-fi" thread: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=27030&start=30

                        Thanks for your kind comment, Nicholas. Yeah, that would be my dream job, to work for the movie industry someday.

                        Have a great weekend!

                            Not all my own work, I just customized the model provided for a 'Render this' challenge a while ago. The original model belongs to Tadema,(thanks and hope you don't mind John) but so far its the best render I have come up with on my tired old PC at home. Plenty of things still wrong with it but I like it

                                Not sure if it's my best, but it was definitely the most fun! The Hannibal 8 from the 1964 movie "The Great Race", starring Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis and Natalie Wood.

                                    Thanks Kevin. I must confess that everything in the fourth shot is purely from my imagination. There were absolutely no photos available of that area, just a vague reference that the rear wheels were chain driven and the scissor lift, steering and brakes were all powered by hydraulic motors that were powered by a VW engine that rose with the body. I have no knowledge of hydraulics and such, so I just had fun with it.

                                    And it had absolutely no suspension, which must have been fun considering some of the roads this thing went tearing down in the movie ๐Ÿ˜„
