The sweetest model you'll see this year

Time to have your socks blown off. Jacques (a.k.a. Silvershadow) is a SketchUp god who hangs out on the SketchUcation Community Forums, and he's done it again. I'm completely serious when I say that looking at his work makes me, simultaneously:
  • inspired to hole up for a weekend and do nothing but make beautiful things with SketchUp
  • never want to build another 3D model again, knowing I'll never come close to Silvershadow's level of über-SketchUp-ninja-mastery
Enough giddy babbling – here are some pictures. Try not to drool on your keyboard.

Note: All images are a combination of SketchUp and VRay rendering.



The best place to immerse yourself in the heavenly glow of this endeavor is to read through this SCF thread. You'll need a free login to see the images, but signing up is well worth it.

    Staggering! The ultimate 'assembly' and slightly more than 10MB I guess. Imagine the original design drawings also.

    Awesome man! You should look in to 3d printing your models...
