Pocket Park
-
Still not much to look at. I'm also liking the monochrome style.
-
Waiting for you to populate it, has a very Japanese garden feel.
-
Getting there. Vegetation, benches and trash cans next.

Inside view.

Vegetation next.

Inside view again, without vegetation.

Hi, Bryan:
Looking really good. I am still watching.
I like the waterfall wall idea. May create the illusion that the adjacent building is melting
-
It's dead. The foliage has made the model too large and I can no longer work with it.
Any suggestions?
-
The only suggestion that immediately came to mind was possibly using face me type foliage components set up for predetermined scenes.
I assume you have "purged unused", and so forth? -
Coming along nicely. I would try some face me plants. The shadows and all the monochrome is a eerie mix. I would look at scenes without shadowss--or blend shadows in lightly or in Post pro.
-
Found a low poly tree in warehouse. More vegetation to add.

I assume you have "purged unused", and so forth?Yes. Purge is part of everyday workflow now.
I wanted to use 3D foliage in order to stay with the monochrome style. Faceme plants doesn't work with textures turned off.
Or does it?
But I did find the people in faceme. Maybe I can find some monochrome faceme plants as well.
Hmmm.

Now that you are back at it-- and it is looking great, it would be neat to see those concession structures complementing the gate and fence styling. On the other hand, it might come off as too uniform, or repetitive.
I like the plant material's appearance. It looks a lot like Japanese rice paper plants in the leaf.
Also, I like your transparent figures. -
Almost done.
I forgot the streetlights!

Good suggestion mitcorb. I'm not real happy with the concession stands either.

Thanks, but I have no idea why those people are transparent. I got them from the warehouse and didn't see they were transparent until I went full texture.
(no credit shown in the warehouse for them)Don't know how to change them either.
But I kind of like it.
-
Street lights and signage added. Water wall updated.
Concession stands still need work.
Bigger pictures.
-
These are looking great. You have come a long way.
I don't know for sure, but there may be a way to opaque your figures if you actually wanted to do it. Might be a little bit of work, because you may have to reassign colors/transparency while retaining outlines, or something like that.
I like that you are using the color pallettes from the Sketchup application itself- or it appears that way. -
Thanks mitcorb. It was hard regaining the momentum and motivation.
Yes, it's pure SketchUp. Ver 8 at that.
I think I will leave the people as they are. It's kind of fun.
I'll try and finish the concession stands tomorrow and after that will be the final environment placement, but it will only a monochrome, low detail surrounding environment with the park in full color.
I'll try and tweak the water wall as well. It's not working for me right now.
I really want to finish this one. I'm getting impatient to take a crack at Artisan. I think it's going to be either a robot or a car.
-
Minor tweaks.
Water wall. Bridge support thickness. "Floating" trees. Added more benches near concession stands.
