House 321 3-D Model Viewsby ~Built4ever

Designs & Interfaces / Architectural Design

My first attempt at primitive 3D Modeling, just fooling around a bit using Sketch-up. W.I.P., Some roofs not full thickness yet, many details missing still, but easy to get the form of the house and check for intersecting roof problems. There IS one tiny problem where the great room roof hits the rear porch roof, easy to fix I suppose, I'll look at it closely. I might add to this later, keep watching. Lots to learn still. i could easily trace the outlines and do multiple perspective drawings for any house once modeled. Interior rooms might be modeled too, and "cathedral ceiling" porch already in progress... This is one of my original designs, see gallery for full plans.

You work are just awesome! Even with the fact that I'm a design student, not architect, I really like your job and artistic style, anyway, I always got a pit on people who say that nowadays 3d modeling rules, because I am a tradicional artist. But when I started to work on sketchup, I saw that 3d tools are very useful and the best thing to do is balance betwen computer programs and tradicional art.
Really fan of your portfolio here.

I agree, use both traditional means and computer modeling. I'm too heavy in pencil drawing, I need more practice with the computer stuff...

If you are looking into getting more involved in 3D Modeling, you might want to give Autodesk's Revit and 3ds Max a go; they both are very cool programs to work with. =3

Really like this little primitive 3D view! Hopefully, you'll continue to develop it and we'll get to see the final result!

I have to change the main roof pitch, it's too high, plus a couple other boo-boo's. I'm trying another house right now, but with exterior and interior walls correctly modeled (width.) I'm still trying to master the protractor tool.

for a first attempt its pretty good! Sketchup is great for quick modelling.

~Built4ever May 1, 2012

Yes! What do you use?

~MBNaveed May 1, 2012

Well to be honest I use sketchup, A LOT. Have become pretty good at modelling even very complex stuff with it.

~Built4ever May 1, 2012

Yeah, F700 (above?) says similar, sometimes simplicity is faster. I still use paint quite a lot for certain image manipulation stuff, and GIMP for more complex stuff. HMMM....I'm still thinking that modeling in a general way, then printing, tracing the main outlines, and doing my standard drawing is much better. I can do multiple views quickly once I have the model done. My stuff is too detailed. It will take too long to do all the details. Maybe I'll check your gallery again. Any suggestions?

~MBNaveed May 1, 2012

I haven't uploaded a lot of my regular work yet, I'll do that sometime. But yes the kind of work you're doing it would be better the way you said, because Sketchup gives u basic masses and perspectives, the rest is whatever magic you can draw onto it! You can also give it sketchy outlines within the program and thicknesses too using the STYLES window so that makes it even easier to integrate into drawing.

I think you are off to a good start. Might want to start with a simple exterior model 1st and then do a full on interior/exterior model. SU is a bit different from other CAD/3D tools but that is not always a bad thing
