      I don't use the sand box - I have cats and so, I stay away from sand boxes . . .

      But really, I never use it - what does it do?

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

        Its for making terrain and things in that form. you can make nice smooth tweaking

          So, Ray, do you use it?

          Should I be using it?

          Am I ever going to start detailing and rendering?

                If you look at the low number of poly's in this model you can get an idea how fast it was created & edited . . . just another quick sketch . . .

                Happy Sketching,

                    Thanks - here ya go.

                    They're really sloppy - for example, the geometry on the "electric car" is messed up around the front wheels - I wasn't paying attention to details or consistent geometry but rather just trying to quickly jot down an idea. Also, on the "electric car", I used SketchyFFD for some shaping - I find it's usually quicker to do shaping manually - I prefer to have more control where FFD quite often wreaks havoc with the integrity of the geometry requiring lots of time to "fix" stuff so it'll be symmetrical, & so forth. It's fun to take this one and stretch the shapes to come up with wildly different looking cars (see image(s) attached below).

                    I think the last car has the potential for detailing - it could be "okay" I guess - just a quick concept.

                        WOW! I wish I knew how to do that - way cool! You make my stuff look great - thanks! I will try to figure out more of Kerkythea - very inspirational.

                        Thanks again,

                              It is vray, but kerky can be almost as good.

                                  VERY NICE!!!

                                  I will look into vray - I guess there is a forum or some links - I know almost nothing about rendering software - is one higher recommended than the other (Kerkythea vs. vray)?

                                  Danke,

                                    currently i use kerky and it gives pretty good results, but Vray is good 2 because it is implemented into sketchup and it would be good with your fast draft concepts

                                      I just sent V-Ray an email inquiry - looks like the educational version is $250. If it's worth it I'll be happy to spend the bucks - I just know very little about this stuff and I don't want to spend government money on something that's really not necessary or best value.

                                      We lease many seats of 3DS at school but I don't know how to use it - would that work well for our rendering needs? Doesn't Blender also do rendering? I need to figure out what options are available and how they compare in price & performance. Maybe someone has created a current matrix showing this information?

                                      Thanks,

                                          I can't remember if I ever posted this one or not - I was perusing through some of my carchives (get it, ha) and found this one, tossed on a few details and here tiz.
