Speed Modeling Challenge #48 - Future Transportation (1hr)

[Orangutan]

a large chunk of time was spent trying to zoom in without it zooming in past the object i was trying to work on. i don't know if other people have that problem?!

sometimes I also have that problem. First of all you need to have your mouse over the object when zooming, but sometimes it still doesn't work, and there is the effect of there being a sort of section plane in front of the camera. It usually happsens when you have a physically big model, and try to zoom into something relatively small, and the only way to avoid it that I can find is to take that component to another sketchup window to work on, or make it really big relative to it's surroundings using the scale tool

Hi.
In this case zooming is more precise in parallel projection.
Zoom Extents from camera toolbar should help you deal with "section plane effect".
Al least I think.

sorry but theme was "future transportation"
here on the topic can be maximum 3-4 of highlight
somehow got was not what I expected ...
such a big field for creativity and enough time (1 hour instead of 30 minutes)
and as a result of our request about free transport in the style of fantasy, cartoon, reproduction retro drawing ... (((
do not even know what we have future, do that for us to drop a meteor will destroy all life and evolution begin anew ... at some stage it will have superpowers and we construct a network of portals))))

Rich O'Brien - what a perspective

[Box]

Rich, I notice you used black rubber feet, are you not concerned about skid marks!

When you reach a certain age you stop caring about skid marks all toghether...

[Gaieus]

are you not concerned about skid marks!

He's still has some paper...

FYI: my wife is a hospice nurse. I am safe (she would even change my diapers)

Rich, I think you've got this contest all sewed up. Other entries may be purtier, but they can't come close to your (weird) sense of humor

What burns me is that it was something that I could have actually done within the time limit (well, possibly)

Here's my future transportation.

Rich, you're a big pessimist in 35 years old...

Gaieus: FYI: my wife is a hospice nurse. I am safe (she would even change my diapers)

Gai: you should never ask a person to do for free what he/she does for a living.

ERIC: 5 more days all. I would love to see a few more entries.

Boo: I have been personally holding back on the last few challenges. . .you know. . .to give more people a chance.

[boofredlay]

Don't hold back, do it now.
3 Days left.

[hellnbak]
