      Excellent! Your work, then, is a great example of how SketchUp doesn't really need a huge super computer like some people would insist. πŸ‘ πŸ‘

        Oh, absolutely! A few months ago I had to download the trial version of 3ds max because a client had a few .max files that needed converting into skp. On my computer I could barely rotate the camera around the models in 3ds max, while in Sketchup it was no problem (with Profiles turned off, of course;)). I just wish there was more work available for us Sketchupers.

                  Here's another update with a model I completed recently. I can't post this elsewhere yet because it spoils a location for the next issue of the book, but I suppose I'm fine posting it here. It's a model of an apartment that serves as a "clubhouse" of sorts for a special task force of soldiers called Daggers.

                  https://i.imgur.com/A6mX5gh.png

                  The portraits arranged around the Daggers emblem on the wall are of soldiers who have died in the line of duty:

                  https://i.imgur.com/0LEVyak.png

                  In one corner of the room there's supposed to be a half-serious "shrine" to the leader of the Daggers, Commander Carlyle. A simplified and somewhat enlarged version of this made it into the final model, but I haven't made renders of it yet:

                            Here's one I finished just now. It's also for the upcoming issue of the book. Not a particularly exciting project, just a building (The Stanford Bioengineering Building), but I think it came out nicely.

                              Time for another update with another model from the upcoming issue. This is an upscale Mexican restaurant in SoCal with an outdoor area.

                                    I've been experimenting with a new rendering technique that is supposed to emulate a comic book style. Here are a few of the results, some of them only with shading, some of them colored:
