The secret is that I poke at twenty different things at once for months, and then post a bunch of work when one or two projects start to bear fruit.Stinson Lenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771044961865122762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-772622735870268507.post-47329096645849898522013-01-03T07:16:41.120-08:002013-01-03T07:16:41.120-08:00OK, thanks. My problem might have something to do...OK, thanks. My problem might have something to do with having a quad-core processor, which I've read is not the best for Sketch-Up. Seriously, I don't know how you get your stuff done so quickly. It takes me forever! lol. Keep up the great work!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13344179830047866329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-772622735870268507.post-77251320920638601462013-01-03T07:04:49.454-08:002013-01-03T07:04:49.454-08:00It's all done in the free version of Sketchup....It's all done in the free version of Sketchup. I use one or two plugins, also free, but the basic tools mostly do everything I need. I do the renders with Indigo. In my experience so far, Indigo is far and away the best renderer available for sketchup. My computer is nothing fancy, just a refurbished desktop PC so ordinary that I don't even care to know its specs (though I just upgraded to a newer model Dell that has a bit more processor power) Sadly I've noticed that no matter how good your computer is, Sketchup takes forever to save. It seems to be an thorn in the side of many longtime users, according to various complaints I've read on sketchup forums. <br />Thanks!Stinson Lenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771044961865122762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-772622735870268507.post-15825269648475639752013-01-03T06:33:37.333-08:002013-01-03T06:33:37.333-08:00Is the Blockade Runner interior made with Sketch-U...Is the Blockade Runner interior made with Sketch-Up? If so, the free or pay version? What program do you use to render the images? If you don't mind my asking, what are the specs of your computer? I use Sketch-Up on mine for a house project and it is very sloooooooow at times, especially when saving a large file.
