Looking good so far Ecuadorian!
I think you'll learn a lot trying these different techniques.

Are you studying to become an architect?

I've also updated my website a bit:

Thats about it for now,

Thanks for the quick reply Remus!

Would this be any good?

Intel E5200 Core 2 Duo
Geforce 9300 512mb
4096mb / 4GB DDR2 800Mhz
500GB 7200rpm

AMD Phenom X3 8650+
Geforce 8300 HDMI, DVI
4096mb / 4GB DDR2 800Mhz
750GB 7200rpm

Guys,

I've got this museum piece:

AMD Sempron 2400+
1,75 Ghz, 512 MB
ASUS Radeon 9600 128MB

I'm looking to buy a new desktop because I can't run any large SU models.
What's the most important issue for 3d performance like SketchUp and Kerky?

• Dual core? RAM? Or the videocard?
• Any suggestions?

Thanks, Ward

I want your skills!
Very nice renders.

WOW!

Goedemiddag! (Good afternoon in Dutch)

You've got some great skills!
Model is amazing, renders looking great too.
What Kerky settings did you use?

Regards, Ward

Hey guys,

I want to share some pictures of the city I love:
NEW YORK.

Going back in May 2009 (forth and final time... for now)

Hope you like them.

Thats a cool model! Very powerful.

I don't like the purple...
Maybe use dark rusty colors for a battle damaged robot?
Or bright colors like yellow and red to point out the robot is dangerous?

Nice design Fred, I think an atrium in a house would be very cool!

Cool robot!
Looks like Wall-E's meaner brother!

Damn... I wish I could make renders like that one day!

Sweet looking houses! Very cosy.

Hey Thomthom,

I'm using the SU 6 materials pack.
Works fine for now... but a new material pack would be nice!

Regards,
Ward

New one.
First image is the digital photo.
Second image for usage in SketchUp, edited in Photoshop.
And finally the model on the right hand side of the square.

@ Gaieus
Thanks for the comment. Will do.

@ Tom
Your models look amazing! I still have a lot to learn...
Are you using textures from sites like CGtextures?

Lemster looks like a nice town!

Wow!
This was my camera, untill I spilled orange juice on it...

Renders look incredibly!
Also noticed "Coolplix" and "Coolplex" heheh

Hey guys,

Added a few new buildings. The building on the left is a Greek restaurant.
The spire in the back is a church that has been converted to a theather.

By EduardoNL

Nice one Alpmeadow!
Chicago looks realistic, I'll have to take a look in GE.

@ Ross M.
Yeah, most images are from a heli tour.
I'm impressed Google has modeled Manhattan!

Hi guys,

Haven't used Google Earth in a couple of weeks...
When I went in to take a closer look at New York, I noticed almost all buildings are now modelled in 3D!

I've used some of my New York photographs and tried to find the exact same location in Google Earth.

Please take a look at the enclosed GIF file.

I think Google Earth did a great job!

Regards,
Ward

Sweet model!
I'm sure it will be accepted for the 3d layer.
(Takes a couple of moths though...)
