RE: Fender Stratocaster - Finished
Thought this was a nice high contrast shot. My favorite angle and feature of the Stratocaster body is the cutaway.

RE: Fender Stratocaster - Finished
Thanks for all the compliments thus far. Here's another rendering. These are all metropolis light transport (BPT) renderings.

Fender Stratocaster - Finished
Finally finished the Fender Stratocaster after close to 3 years. This one is a bit of a hybrid since it includes a 1980s style headstock. The Marshall amplifier is an MG 100DFX.
Too many plugins to name but the primary ones are Artisan for creating the body and neck and several other parts of the model. Heavy use of the round corners plugin. SketchUV was used for the wound strings (tubes). This was all done on Sketchup free versions and the rendering is done with Kerkythea.
I was unable to create a UV map of the neck due to its complex nature so I ended up using a box map (using SketchUV) for the time being. The maple texture is a birdeye maple which I believe I found here on Sketchucation.
All modeling working done on Sketchup.
I'll be adding more rendering as they come out of the oven. I'm sure some of you will have some questions so feel free to ask.

RE: [SOLVED]Restore Toolbar Positions Stopped Working

Thomthom has a Batch Registry command thing that clear the reg
Worked like a charm.
Just have to reset the toolbar positions and I think I'm good to go. There must have been several 100 toolbar positions in the registry and deleting them by hand would have been tedious. Been working on some rather massive skp files here and I think the crashes and bug splats were the cause.
Thanks Rich and ThomThom!

[SOLVED]Restore Toolbar Positions Stopped Working
Need some help here. Recently my "Restore Toolbar Positions" stopped working.
So far I've tried resetting the toolbar positions and then attempting to restore to no avail. I ended NVTray.exe (Nvidia) and that didn't work. It only remembers the last position of the toolbars during a session. It's not drawing specific either.
There's also a matter of when I do attempt to "Restore Toolbar Positions"
it kills my menu functions (File, Edit, View, Camera, etc.).
Latest SU8 (free) and maintenance release. Also did a repair "reinstall" and uninstalling last few plugins. Still doesn't work.
Any ideas? Is there a registry edit anyone can recommend or should I do a reinstall of SU?

RE: [Plugin]Hole on Solid tool v1.6.3 upadate Jan 09, 2012
Just discovered this plugin. Installed it and tested it with faces and components including multiple selections and it works like a charm. Thanks! It will come in very handy for window openings.

RE: [Plugin] Sketchup Ivy
Noticed something the other day. When I open a new instance of SU8 it loads all of the "ivyleaf" components into the new model. It also loads these same components if I open a drawing from Windows Explorer or using the File -> Open command. It won't load if I open a drawing from the pull down menu withing SU or if I start a second new drawing.
This is using the latest version of Sketchup Ivy from the first page. Not really a critical issue for me but I thought you might want to be aware of this. Didn't see if this was brought up in the previous discussion.

RE: [Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v14.5c - 03 Jul 24
Fredo,
Is there any way to keep "Check Plugins for Update" from opening at startup of SU?
Update:
Never mind. I figured it out.

Excellent work as always. It's as if though you can almost touch it.

RE: CatchUp Newsletter Edition 2
@utiler said:
Gus, I'm keen to know how you get an octagonal centre proxy when you SDS...
I formed the proxy manually if that's what you mean. The octagon is just a polygon or a circle with 8 sides. I didn't use the "Subdivide Selection" here. Just the octagon using the circle tool and then the lines with the line too and moving everything up from there.
Here's a quick .skp showing the steps.

RE: 28 Free Hardwood Flooring Textures
Nice find Rich. That will be useful for more than flooring.
A note however. Those are CMYK jpgs which have to be converted to RGB in order to work in SketchUp. At least on the free version of SU that I'm using.

RE: [Plugin] Curve Maker v1.2.2 - 7 March 2011
Excellent plugin Max. The update makes it even better. Now I can create curves including the common helix on the fly and they line up perpendicular to faces.
