How I do it: SketchUp « The New Hobbyist. I always enjoy reading about other’s worksflows and learning new ways to optimize my usage of software. So I thought I’d write a series of “How I do it” posts to show those of you just getting started (or those looking to pickup additional tips) how I work. Below is a list of all the plugins I currently use in SketchUp. I held out on plugins for awhile thinking they were unnecessary bloat for Sketchup, when I added them in I found I had been missing out on some really useful features.
Here’s what I’m using at the moment. STL Export – Easily my most used SketchUp plugin. This lets you export your models as STLs files (as well as several other types) for 3D printing. STL Import – as you can probably imagine this plugin lets you import STL files. Cleanup3 – This plugin cleans up orphaned and unnecessary lines. UV Toolkit – Not one I use all the time but very helpful for texture mapping unusually shaped objects. Weld – Turns a series of line segments into a curve. Skp7. Artlantis tutorial.

A Making Of for Scott Baumberger's recent published image for Block 15 Terrace Thanks again to Jeff Mottle for allowing me the opportunity to share my workflow with all of you.
I hope it will be helpful to your work! This image was created as part of a competition entry for a proposed residential tower in Portland, Oregon. My client was Boora Architects - a big thank you to them as well for inviting me to help them with the renderings. Because it was a competition, we wanted to provide only enough information to communicate the design intent without getting bogged down with excessive detail.
For this viewpoint we knew that we wanted to showcase the outdoor terrace, but didn’t know yet which part of the space to focus on, or how much detail would be required to explain the concept. After a little back and forth, we decided on a variation of this last option. Here is the raw render of the model done with the Shaderlight plugin within SketchUp. Now we’re ready for the real work! ArchiTECH PC 8.0.12. 9 SketchUP Tips for better 3d modeling workflow. 1.7K Flares Facebook 0 Twitter 20 Pin It Share 34 Google+ 34 LinkedIn 4 inShare4 StumbleUpon 1.6K Reddit 0 1.7K Flares × I picked up SketchUP my first year of architecture school back in 2002 and never stopped using it since.
It is as powerful as it is simple, and yet I’ve seen too many pick up bad habits who find it hard to utilize SketchUP to its full potential. So while I work on the continuation of the Making of ‘MS House’ – Part 1, Let me elaborate further and share some more of my SketchUP work-flow. Before I get specific about a few things, I should mention that it is good practice to have the manual comfortably nearby while modeling and I also highly recommend watching the SketchUP video guides. This is a pure text post, so please bear with me.
Learning to use shortcuts is essential for fast modeling. I recommend mapping these commands Guides are a blessing, use them all the time.

EXTERIOR ELEVATION: SHADOW TWEAKING - BLOG. I have posted in the past on how to create interior elevations/sections by only using Photoshop, but I never posted on exterior elevations. The workflow that I use for exterior elevations really isn't much different than the workflow that I use for interior elevations. The only change is with the shadows. In my interior elevations tutorial, I gave depth to the illustration by selecting certain surfaces and painting in shadows and highlights. However, with exterior elevations, I streamline the process by exporting a shadows layer from Sketchup. With this shadows layer, there is a key move that I use which quickly and easily gives depth and clarity by utilizing the Burn tool.
While I don't go into a great amount of detail in this post, the process of using the burn tool is more thoroughly explained in my "Ambient Occlusion" video tutorial. 1.
