awesome.

you rock.

let me buy you a beer.

i like it all. ten times better than any of the work in my portfolio.

do agree that the chairs could be better though, given the standard of the other things you have included (still very good though)

any chance of a tut on how you did the dome grid thingy (very precise as usual!)

lovely stuff

pav

legend, gonna have a play now.

cheers dude

5. Use the X-Ref Ruby and break your model up into areas or sections.
   Work on each section seperately in different SketchUp files. Now they'll be much more manageable.
   Have a model that contains all your Xref'd in data - but use only this model when you really need to.

how was i not aware of this ruby? is it on smustard as i can't seem to find it.

i think gernally cleaning up cad drawings before importing is a good idea too, when working from colleagues drawings i always spend a few mins deleting layers and simplifying them as much as poss before the import.

pav

ah, cunning.

he is right though about the creatine though.

i still use it. lol

pav

anyone else majorly confused by the above post?

very nice work by the way bytor, it's certianly a very nice alternative to photoreal.

pav

this is stunning

pav

exactly!

TV never lies, it's the people in front of the cameras that do.

pav

i like this response, it's clear, concise, correct, and most importantly has a reference to chuck norris.

pav

thank you!

am i really the only one who couldn't find it?

embarrassing! he he

pav

where is the download page? i can't find it?

pav

that is reasonable!

just over charge a few clients, and jobs a gooden.

we need to sit down, storyboard and decide when to start filming.

my god we're gonna be famous.

pav

we could just use my projector, put it behind us, and project sketchup scenes onto the screen behind us.

then when we go national and eventually worldwide with the show, we can get all that other gizmometry you mentioned earlier.

pav

hmm, might be worth a look.

cheers!

pav

i do have a HD camera as it goes.

as far a a big screen goes, i only have the one for my home cinema, not sure it's gonna be big enough (only 2.5m x 2m)

good for the screening of the pilot episode though!

pav

i think that would be a wicked combo.

i speak exceptionally quickly, and slip in and out of "market slang" and "impress the client" lingo.

it's like talking to someon with dual personality who is heavily dosed up on MDMA

so i'm told.

Another SubSmooth critter from long ago. This an approximation of a Tylosaur.

This is the progression. I used an original Charles R. Knight illustration for the dimensions, created the proxy in the center, then subsmoothed it and did a bit of fussing with the result.

[attachment=0:2ukyxpkh]<!-- ia0 -->SUTylosaur1.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:2ukyxpkh]

Actual size of this critter was 44 feet long...

i've seena few models people have made from side elevations and plans of objects (mainly cars) what is the process involved in it, i'm not sure i understand how it works.

great work by the way, very impressive

pav

that would be awesome!

but what could we call it?

plot would you like to be co-presenter, or executive producer? ha ha

pav

he he he, feel like i'm famous!

pav

22 sounds bout right to me!

that said, you'd be better of spending more money on a smaller better quality monitor, than the same amount on a larger lower quality one.

i realise that sounds like gobbledygook, but read it a few times and it makes sense.
