      . . . one could call this a "chiseling" technique (quite different from the way geometry is defined and edited using the video tutorials I posted a couple months ago) . . . this technique is very fast and easily provides extreme "what if" exploration of shapes, proportions, blah, blah, blah . . .

            . . . a little more detail on the sides - I need to go back and fix this - too sharp around the edges . . . what a cheesy background . . .

                    . . . I just had to try something different . . . which illustrates clearly that different does not always equal aesthetically pleasing . . . 🀷 . . .

                        The guys at GM should remove their blindfolds before approving a design. What were they thinking? Didn't finish rehab?

                          Personally i think the entire concept of a convertible truck is pretty flawed πŸ˜‰ They should produce more of your designs brad πŸ‘

                            Thank you Remus.

                            In my opinion, a good, complete design involves being able to see the car from any angle while still maintaining visual interest. At best, I usually only get halfway there . . . okay, maybe only 25% . . . but, I'm all about having fun, which is why I continue . . .

                            Happy Sketching,

                              I love to hear that people are having fun with SketchUp! I look at it the same way!! If you can't make something fun, why do it? πŸ˜‰ That's why SketchUp was designed the way it is!

                              Cheers Brad!!

                                I guess it's like when you go fishing - sometimes you get a fish, other times you're just out there, enjoying nature. This one is no catch . . . someone should write a ruby script that allows you to pick an icon that looks like a demolition switch - when selected, you see your model destroyed while hearing the sound of broken glass . . . I'd use that option for this model if it was available . . . (ha) . . .

                                Happy Sketching,

                                    I don't remember ever doing a hearse . . . not sure this would be a popular color with hearses . . . maybe for a festive funeral . . . if there ever was such a thing . . . I better change the color . . .

                                        Hi Brad, love this thread, mate!!!

                                        I am always curious about modeling cars and thought I might like to try and do a couple of cars lcoal to Australia that i have not found for download.....

                                        Any tips on where to start?

                                        Cheers,

                                        Just Curious...

                                          Andrew, if you're talking about "how do I create cars," then I posted some video tutorials here:

                                          301 Moved Permanently

                                          favicon

                                          (www.sketchucation.com)

                                          Maybe that will help - hope so - good luck, have fun.

                                          If you really want something you won't ever stop pursuing it.
