CatchUp Edition 5

Postby Rich O Brien » Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:09 pm

Hi,

It's back, after what feels like an eternity. But I think you'll get enjoyment out of this 60 page edition.

Firstly, there's the 'Making of the RatBird' from Eric Lay, a tour de force in modeling using mostly native tools. Adriana Granados shares another Interior Design technique. Of Course Mike's Apps and Gadget reviews return and a thorough review of Lumion by Csaba Pozsarko and much more.

Also, SketchUcation is very proud to announce 'Mini Publications'. Our first book is 'Let's SketchUp' by Tom Fenn. You can read more about it in CatchUp. Or head on over to books.sketchucation.com to get a copy for yourself.

Special thanks to Julian Carrasco for his immense contribution in showcasing his SketchUp skills. So without letting the cat out of the bag.....

To download the Interactive PDF you can go here

or to view in Flipping Page Format online you can go here

As always a great big Thank You goes out to those who contribute both with CatchUp and here on the forums.

We hope you enjoy this edition and it's good to hear back from you if you've any feedback post it below.

Thanks guys.

@Eric

That RatBird tutorial still blows my mind. I was itching for others to see it. Hopefully members might post their results. So kudos to you on sharing this.

Excellent new edition! I need to pass this on to my friends at a computer modding forum I'm involved with. Most there use SketchUp. So after reading your latest it prompted me post links. Would it be okay to pass on the latest pdf also ? A sample of what they can look forward to when they sign up here.. thank you

Well done. Beautiful presentation.
I really like the way you do not scrimp, or over edit, which allows a really thorough coverage of the topic.

I know it's a little late to be asking this, but is Catchup #5 still available for download? I've tried clicking the links and I just get a
white screen.

Thanks for the link, it appears to have been a firefox issue: I had just upgraded from 3.6 to 8, so a lot of my plug ins and extensions weren't updated yet.
