Early Morning Screencasting, Day 3 Recap

Yet more on the same building as yesterday. I decided to frame it a wall at a time and see where we go from there. Then I got a little bored, so I pulled the model over to Revit and did some renderings to mix things up. Fun!

Early Morning Screencasting, Day 2 Recap

Today's early morning screencasting started a little later than anticipated and ended with me forgetting my mouse on the table in the southwest corner of the Computer Science building (which I was fortunate enough to retrieve intact). More work on yesterday's house. I was going to extrude it and make a simple model, but then I got thinking about it and it rapidly became more complicated. Down to the individual brick complicated. I'm beginning to see a pattern in my drafting behavior.

Here are some screen captures from today's session. Watch me draft tomorrow morning between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM on USTREAM.

 

Early Morning Screencasting, Day 1 Recap

This morning I started something new for me: live screencasting. And guess what? I really like it! I spent an hour or so this morning drawing the floor plan for a house I found online. I'll be working on it again tomorrow morning starting around 7:00 AM Mountain time. I am using USTREAM and my channel can be accessed here.

I tried doing this a little differently. Rather than drawing the walls and then extruding them, I decided to draw the rooms, then infer the walls around them. We'll see how it goes... I don't have an Architectural Modeling with SketchUp instructor telling me I'm doing it the wrong way, so I guess we're going by trial and error. I'll be picking up again first thing in the morning. Check out my channel when you've got a moment if you're up early and are interested!
