If you have a cool sketchup model you would like to show off, please post here.

Well they're pretty basic, but here are some floating mines I made for a lil project I'm working on:

Great news, google sketchup version 7 just released.

Nice models, sky!

@Raptor: awesome.

Thanks fluffy...anyway more stuff from the same project (making a preview space battle for it):

SSF Strike Bomber SSF Walrus (transport) SSF Basalisk, Pirate Gorgon and SSF Aetherraptor soon.

Here's a bunker model I made. Comments/Suggestions welcome.

Love the bomber Sky!
And nice bunker Raptor. It looks very WWIIish (and yes, I know that's what it is for).

Thanks man, much more to come still.

Cool, finaly a topic for sketchup models! Will post some soon.
PS. Where'd you get those textures, (RAPTOR)BENSTWO{SGT}?

on http://www.cgtextures.com/textures.php i suppose
(on the screenshot he has a browsertask with the website open)

Yup, I got it from CGT. That place has almost every texture you could imagine. However no tank textures, which I really need.

Cool. How do you get the textures in sketchup, though?

Ok first some new models. I still have to work on the inside and do some touch up details later. However it's about 75% done.





Next the tutorial on how to get the textures in sketchup.

1: Download a texture from your texture website of choice and save it to a folder. You can also go to google images and right click - "save picture as" and save it to a folder too.

2: Open sketchup and click paint.

3: Now just follow where the arrow points and click that button.


4:


5: Find the folder you saved the file to.


6: Finally scale the object to the side you want. You can adjust the brightness too.


7: Last of all apply the texture to the surface you want.

Holy Cow. That building looks just amazing! Ohhhh. The sniping possibilities are endless.

From all these amazing WW2 props I'm assuming you aren't working on IH anymore Bentswo?

Havn't given up yet. Just delayed at most. Hopfully once this WW2 thing is done in a month or two I could focus my efforts back on that.

Also one small prop I whipped up in about 10 minutes.

Here's a Galactic Federation Marine rifle I'm working on. I made the textures myself, so they're not perfect, but they're alright.

Shown that to RED51?

Well here's another house I made for the WW2 project. It has stairs and doors leading to all rooms. I still have a little texturing to do to the inside so ignore that.

Enjoy











and just on a side note, how do you make your images really big. I just can't seem to figure that out.
