I did this one recently

Hi I did this some time ago. I never posted it before




Layha for Production Exploded 1.pdf

Had a medical procedure so have not used sketchup for a while so I got back on the horse today. Was a bit rusty. I did this referencing an image from jamzVIEW But put my own take on it. Building model was from 3D warehouse by Desired Space that have high quality models and are recommended. Sketchuo plus TM

Hi Guys, I decided to do the door, it is hellish I did the stained glass in Autocad by Autode$ it too many hoursand many more hours just to kix the planars.. If anyone has a godd sandstone texture you could pass on it would be appreciated. I am doing the sandstone as geometry block by block

Have done a bit more work. This is the final

Just did this render in SU and TM with a bit of post with luminar Neo, based on an image I saw with a few changes

I have made the changes to the steps.![alt tex

I had another go at the house, I prefer this version.

I just did my quickest render ever. I know this is a SU forum but for this I only used sketchup for the terrain. I used Sketchfab and Megascans for the models and TM native trees. The first image is using Luminar AI to replace the sky and the second image I added filters to get the more mystical look

Hi, I thought it would be cool to have wet tyre tracks on the driveway. I could not get hold of some wet tyre tracks. I used a TM native puddle an shrank it down to the size of a tyre track and arrayed them as instances in a linear fashion so there are hundreds of puddles in a line, looks quite convincing I think

@beemer535is said in Wondering if anyone could help out with this Light in Sketchup??:

All good mate, thanks so much for the offer, I have just used a simple dome without the kicked out edge section using follow me as you suggested. Thanks again for your help! Cheers, Nick

Are you Australian by any chance?

Would you like me to model it for you?

All good mate were you successful?

When I was 14 I was flying to the UK from Australia and we had engine problems so the aircraft was grounded for a few days. the airline took us on a very long drive into the dessert to a hotel almost standing almost alone. I remembered the complexity of the wall decorations almost jewel like and intricate. The other things I remember was getting an electric shock every tim I touched any metal I was told it was the combination of almost zero humidity an wearing man made textile shirt. The other thing I remember is that the tv would not start until 4PM and the first thing everyday on TV was the then Shar Playing classical piano

Here you go, Make a dome with the follow me tool

Hey nick can you make a dome in the elevation and do the same thing instead of just a curve pretty sure that would work with tha same technique

I would do it this way.

Energy consumption which we should be reducing, is going up

By Oct 27, 2028 (three years from today) global electricity use for AI-heavy computing (data centres + AI training/inference) is plausibly 30%–200% higher than it is today

The whole world looks scary to me I feel sorry for our kids

@Rich-O-Brien said in Ain't Sketchup to rhyme with the trends?:

It is easy get frustrated because it lacks certain features. But a bloated app can also lead to frustration when trying to find features hidden behind nested menu or panels.

It is no secret that SU was designed not to intimidate a new user from its inception by having a very simple UI. I do not understand why SU does not change the UI very much at all but have advanced features hidden until you "awaken" them when your modelling skills get more advanced.

Interesting, It feels to me that rightly or wrongly Trimble sees it future in AI with the likes of SketchUp difusion. over modelling tools. who am I to say they are wrong. When you say "SU to choose: growth or death" what do you mean?
