Is there any way to transform an image into a SU model. If the answer is yes plz tell me how.

here is the image I want to transform:

great... I didn't know that... but can this be done with normal text (not 3D), because I want it not to rotate when I change view in the animation (or can I just rotate the "core" in some way). And how can I make smoother transitions?

Hi again...

I am trying to make a curved text around a model. I have made a picture and added the text in PS, but now I want to make the model inside to rotate. Can some1 plz tell me if that is possible in SU and if I need a plugin.

Here is the picture and thx:

Hi again... here is a render from the Gallery forum which I really liked

I was wondering if some 1 can do something like this:

ok... here is a jpeg... i hope you can see them

BTW the "city" is not mine... i downloaded it from the internet

I am still giving rendering a chance... I am using IDX render (or something like) and don't laugh. I don't know how can I make the cubes look like stone... can any1 help me with that... here is my second render:

Rubik's Atlantis.tiff

You know, as a little kid, the cube only gave me frustration, so I forgot about it. But after reading the Wikipedia article and noticing the many tutorials available on Youtube, I decided to give it another try. I hope to find one in the toy store tomorrow.

Great... if you solve 1 tell

BTW my best time is 28.31s... it took me 3 months

Here is my render... i couldn't get any reflections and things like that so I put the "statue" in a half orb and circled it with little "bulbs"...

I don't like it... but it is my first render ever...

My 1st render.tiff

I would like a tutorial about a rendering program...

If you do this make sure that you make it about a program that can be used both on Mac or Windows

Hi... I tried to render... but it came out worse than in sketchup...

And great work... Thx for spending your time

Ok... Thx... I will try to come up with a render tomorrow...

I am in the CET area...

No offense but I really like the AndryG81's render best... It has seems to hold some "action".

Thanks... By the way... I would like to have a go my self... so what rendering program do you think that I should use and if there are some nice and easy tutorials?

Is it possible to make it look like that is in a jungle... Like the Mayan ruins that have vegetation on them??

It is sooooo cool... it looks like an old pile of cubes in the middle of the desert...

everything you need to survive in the desert is a lot of Rubik's Cubes

Wow Thank you everyone!!

I really like the render from Ecuadorian... Is there any way that you can make it so that the whole "statue" would fit??

Hi again.

I am working on a soon to be website called RUBIKu'S. As you might have guessed it would be a site about the Rubik's Cube (tutorials, projects...).

I was wondering what the logo should be like. Than it came to me. A statue - a stack of large Rubik's Cubes. And seeing your renders I thought that it could be made in SketchUp.

Knowing that I cant render for my life, I am asking you to render this model for me. I would like the render to look like a great statue from ancient times or the "space age".
