                      This is really a fun project.

                      From start to end less then 24 hours.

                      Im former times (15 years ago) we had something like speedmodelling- challenge at sketchucation. I do it sometimes for me to practice.

                              Do they land ready to go out of the AI, or did you have to modify them? Also, what's the polygon count for these models?

                                Once MeshyAI figures out UV Maps it will be game changer. Both those engines look great though!

                                  I miss that.
                                  It was super fun.

                                    the file is heavy but sketchup can handle it.

                                    a quick render in Nano Banana.
