Really great! I wish I had the talent/skill to do stuff like this.
How long does it take to draw models like this and what tools/plugins do you use?
Again:
It's a constant tweaking for 2-3 months for most of these. We typically meet with the client every 2 weeks during Schematics and update the exterior/interior model as we go. I use the royal we, but I'm doing the SketchUp and presentations.
I've been taking on more and more responsibilities over the design direction with each project.I've been using minimal plugins, but Windowizer gets reinstalled with every upgrade. I rely on that heavily for quick designwork.
Was an early adopter of Lumion starting at Lumion v1..we still carry a copy of that. I utilize Thea Render when I want really good looking stills and know we aren't going to do a fly around. I finally caved in and started to use Enscape on these last few projects because another Architect we were working with wanted to match interior/exterior feel. -

LOL - Thanks Rich! I was wondering if I wasn't welcome when it wouldn't let me log in from a thread...went to the main page and it was happy with me.

Of course just Clearing the Guides would have fixed it...
I fixed another guys issue with a corrupted SKP... he'd managed to get a line that had an end was so far away from the origin nothing showed at all.
By usingSketchup.active_model.bounds.max
andSketchup.active_model.bounds.min
it became clear that his model was actually several zillion times bigger that the visible universe
This is fixable by 'filtering'Sketchup.active_model.active_entities.grep(Sketchup::Edge).find_all{|e| ### }
- tests for extreme bounds/lengths and then if there are only one or two erase! them to get back to sanity...Having the same issue.
Cleared guides, moved model to center on origin and drilled into all my groups that looked larger than they should to clear out all the hidden mess there.How do you run those scripts to find out?

RE: Enscape for Sketchup
I've been looking at those, leaning more towards the Lenovo version at the moment. Thanks!
