"my "ART-SKETCH COMPONENTS"...

[urgen]

...probably, somebody still do not clearly understand how it works... giving the post info of how I do the textures to SHOES. The same way I did Skies ,ski boots and wheels that I showed earlier ( I gave the material to GAI and they are going to be restored soon). This is probably the learning video of how to work in PHOTOSHOP...

urgen, awesome work there!

I was hoping somebody could download the file and host it on an english server, I'm flying blind on the russian download page - I've tried the links (after the counter is done, that url) without success.

Urgen,

So good!!..thanks.
Questions:
What kind of camera are you using?
Are you using a "light box" or natural lighting?
Have you found an average optimum file size for you photo textures?
Cheers!!

I use standard photoshop's filters. Here I used the "filterforge"(Freepack 1 – Metals).

Yes Urgen, but the photographs??? Did you take them, and if so I am still curious about these two things...

...Sorry, didn't get the whole question ...a language trouble plus a new year excitement. ..I am not a photographer and take the photos from different places...mostly on the internet (free pics in e-shops), rarely on photosites for money (if I really like it and the price is not outrageous)...
A piece of advise for work:
1. firstly, the photo should be of a really good quality.
2. the size of the final photo should be not more than 100KB/
3. I usually try to do the textures of a big size with decreasing their quality (JPG), although it is not always possible...
4. I do the textures in PHOTOSHOP, always a bit sharper than I want it to be...in sketchup they look pretty good...
Hi to everybody!!!One more time HAPPY HOLIDAYS,
MOre information next year!!!

[modelhead]

I would be happy to supply you with photo's...I do take pictures for money but for you it would be an honour to collaborate. If you are in need of images of any special objects please let me know and I will shoot and send to your specification....cheers!!

hello everyone!
first of all want to wish a Merry X-mas for those, who are orthodox. I've been thinking some poeple do not fully understand how Ichange the textures... I work with SU5...and the others mostly work with SU6... sending post info in SU6...Of course, this is not such an effective thing as in SU5, but more understandable for the users of SKETCHUP.
The main thing is MAKE COPY(CTRL+C) of one from the sizes in the window EDIT TEXTURE of the basic texture and PASTE(CTRL+V) in the same window of the new texture... this is simple...

[urgen]

... some things from my collection:
...brush - a simple component but quite a good one...

[urgen]

... a GOOOOOD leather bag! and this is how I used it in my work...

[urgen]

...from my collection of knives:

[urgen]

... I loved the photo of this thing on the i-net and wanted to make a model... open SKP,press" slideshow"...

[urgen]

... o-o-o and this is probably not the component in its full sense. 550 kb for a pen (even a golden one) - this is too much.
I modelled it without controlling the quantity of polygones (I suddenly decided so). Lets call it just a model... That's all for today. Bye!

Hi urgen,...Thank's for sharing this,...
i love the black jacket.

[urgen]

Thank you one more time for your support and positive comments!
Sketchup is a schematic program. I do not apply render in my work, I like sketchup-live very much. That's the reason why my components are quite specific in graphics. They should be used carefully in the combination with more traditional and visually simple components for making the sketchup scene more realistic and live, but visually not overloading it!..of course, everything depends on the personal su user's style. I have it that way...
---------------------------------------------
...doing the daily work, sometimes you really want to do something different, reflecting your mood.. once I had summer on my mind. saw good pics and that is the result of it...

[urgen]

...A vew "specific" knifes from my collection...

[urgen]

....plastic....plastic....plastic transparent box!

[urgen]

....from the collection of the tools:......a small garden shovel...

[urgen]

....and those are a couple of quite go-o-od ladies shoes ...well, that's pretty much of it for today. Bye!

[GUNAWAN W]

Hi Urgen,...
