Amazing Sketchup Modeling: Black Hawk by Jacques "silver_shadow"

This is really amazing work by Jacques, considering that the specs of the computer that he used at the time he did this model was a dual core 3.4ghz processor with just 2 gig of ram.



This are some of what Jacques "silver_shadow" shared about the Black Hawk model on the sketchucation forums.

• Modeling time: 1 full month (if I add up the bits and pieces during the 2 months)
• File size: 32.9 MB
• Rendering: tests took over a time of a week
• Rendering engines: Introduction page (fryrender - first renders I have done on this application)
• Assembly pages: Sketchup V-Ray
• Final presentation images: Maxwell render - first renders I have done on this application.

Here are some of the other images done by Jacques "silver_shadow" posted from the forums:
