Very nice short tutorial for somebody who wants to get into Sketch Up for the first time
Thanks for the video!
the vid sucks becuse of the music haha
read the discription please. there is an additional tutorial explaining everything. no worries…
this isn’t much of a tutorial.. if it was a tutorial he shud be speaking with hes own voice and explain every singel step.. wich wud make a video of about 10-15 minutes, that’s a real tutorial… but besides from that i thought this was really cool, just a sham ethat beginners cant learn so much from it =/
thats cool
It does – thank you very much for your reply!
@AururaB maybe the right description is “component”. by clicking some activated paths with the right mousebutton u find the option to create a component (or hit G on your keyboard.
components can be used more often. u drag and drop them from your libary into your szcene. thats all.
i copied and flipped the components (arms, legs, etc). so i can make changes (e.g. on one arm) and they will appear on both sides of the model.
hope that helps.
Quick question: When you say “create elements”, what exactly do you mean? I assumed that the parts you shaped were the elements..
Amazing!
Very cool.
thanks
hit “s”
How do you scale?
wow thnx…i could apply these in making gun models as well =D

push strg and a tiny “+” appears on your mouse. push strg another time, to switch off the copy-mode again, knomseng?

I love this technique! Thank you!
you can flip objects along the red, blue and green line. check out the right-mouse-menu for this mirror-function.
