Hi everyone,

Had some free time today to play around, so I thought I could make some more renders, perhaps this time try some indoor rendering. It's supposed to be some underground parking, nothing fancy, just walls and columns.

So I think these renders look a bit better (or at least more realistic) than the old ones:

Sure man, here it is:

Love your work by the way! You've got amazing attention to detail!

Thanks!
it took me about 4 days total, each day for about 5-6 hours.

Yeah I know I didn't get it right, but I think it looks ok nonetheless .

Thanks guys...

Here's the back, in a different color this time:

Hi everyone,

Thought I'd try modeling a car. I always felt they were the hardest to do; they're not pure geometrical shapes as in architechture and at the same time not freeform organic shapes: they just lie in between, so you can't use the same techniques with them.

Anyway here's what came up with. It's modeled in sketchup and rendered in kerkythea. The background scene is from the warehouse, I didn't really have time to model a more realistic scene:

Another view with a different angle and without DOF:

It's supposed to be a Ferrari F430 spider, but I'm afraid I haven't done a great job as far as that goes .

There was a lot more detail which I wanted to add, such as the interior (which is currently only the seats and a steering wheel suspended in the air ) among other stuff, but I'm afraid I'm running low on free time these days .

Hope you like it!!

Amazing plugin, really!! You guys are taking sketchup to another level!!

I was just wondering, is there a tutorial of a help file maybe, because I'm not really sure what all the tools do or how exactly they work so... a help file would be really useful!!

Thanks and keep up the awesome work!!

Wow, thanks everyone!!

Uh, I used subdivide and smooth mostly, here's a picture of the original mesh (drawn by hand) before subdividing:

The whole mesh:

The face:

As for posing, it can be posed, whether by posing the mesh before subdivision, or using fredo6's fredoscale plugin (cool plugin by the way). Here's an example:

Thanks for the hairstyles solo, they're awesome! I want to know how you make them (if it's ok )? I'll try them on for a render and get back with my results!

I'll also check out the 'sculpt tools' plugin, I only found about it just now, thanks kwist!

Ooookay...

I know I'm not that good, but I was expecting at least a comment??

At least tell me how I can improve it or where I went wrong..

Thanks

Hey everyone,

I haven't been here in a loooong while. Actually, I haven't used sketchup at all in a long while. Well, I thought I'd make my comeback worth it, and decided to try modeling human figures.

I started out with the female figure because it's smoother and thus easier, and here's what I got:

It's modeled entirely in sketchup, and rendered in kerkythea. I know the render's not much, I'm an awful renderer.

The face gave me a really hard time, but I think I managed it. What I can't seem to get right is the hair. Anyone know a good tutorial for that?
