    • RE: Another Machinist's Model of a Steam Engine.

      I love seeing raw engineering. These days they spend more time compressing it into smaller spaces and then concealing it.

      These older designs were purer and showcased the use.

      Great modelling too.

      Love that! Especially the raw SU output. Renders are slick too.

      @Gus-R That first shot is a winner for me. Especially the transition from shaded area. Cinematic vibes

      A forum user has no right to express his personal opinion? you are pathetic. The design is awful, if you don't see it on your radar its a big problem for your professional growth

      Editing your post 7 times to eventually add an insult is not helping have a constructive discussion.

      Just so you are aware this new forum software keeps a revision history for posts.

      Not sure how many people have flagged your comments so far but I am asking you kindly to stop engaging.

      Your opinion has been shared.

      Also, this forum has a Block User feature so you don't see posts from 'enemies'.

      Just click a user to see their profile and there's a dropdown with Block User.

      TS calls to ban a user just for being negative to his his work ( note: not him personally). Isn't it pathetic?

      There's no edit history from Gus where he called for a ban for you. I don't think what you said warrants a ban.

      Gus also didn't delete any posts. Deleted posts remain visible to use until we purge them and there's no deleted posts.

      9dcb7fb2-d863-44ab-90ab-e1e17433accc-image.png

      There's no mention of bans.

      How about this....can we go enjoy our weekends? You've made your point. As has Gus....

      And now Big Mike has been tagged in. For what? No one is winning here.

      How about we stop so I can finish getting Sketchucation Tools 5.0 finished for Monday.....?

      Works a treat too! DOF works great to take attention from the use of image planes

    • RE: Playing arround with Sketchup diffusion

      @jo-ke I gotta admit I'm not a fan of AI. I know there's no escaping it. I just find it hard to say wow or well done.

      I don't know what to say. Its a timesaver.

    • RE: Modelling a tramway

      That's very convincing. Even the fresnel effect looks good.

      Doesn't look like a render and to be honest if you said it was a photo I wouldn't 2nd guess it.

    • RE: Kitchen/breakfast bar

      You need to fix the glass materials. You have Thin checked I think which is only meant to be checked for planar surfaces.

      On curved surfaces it is causing issues because there is no refraction. Uncheck Thin. If the window glass and the glassware share the same material then use a separate material for the glassware Thin unchecked.

      I also think your model is probably completely enclosed with the only entry point for light being the windows. This means the opposite end of the kitchen is struggling and you can see that by the blotchiness on the island counter top, lower cabinets and the backsplash.

      Keep digging in things to understand why this happens. Its the best way to learn.

    • RE: Kitchen/breakfast bar

      This is what I mean by enclosed...

      The interior is really hard to bounce light around and in the real world there would be more internal light paths happening.

    • RE: Kitchen/breakfast bar

      @Mike-Amos said in Kitchen/breakfast bar:

      One of the issues with reflection settings is, you cannot go lower than 0.

      Roughness is a 0 to 1 slider.

      • 0 = 0% roughness therefore 100% reflection (Black)

      • 1 = 100% roughness therefore 0% reflection (White)

      The values actually represent Black to White which is why when you plug greyscale roughness maps you create some very nice results.

      I'm saying this without irony.

      Metallic value = 0
