Very nice! But I don't know if I use it!😊

[tiagofressato]

a good tip is to choose black and white images for better accuracy

[marakony]

How about model some geometry and use fog to simulate depth? This can be exported and used with the extension. I need to try it.

Hi thesketchupessentials, the other day I found out about your channel and I’ve been non stop watching it and practicing sketchup. I downloaded all the plugins and I’m good when it comes to your tutorials of making objects and shapes, but everytime I try to make something of my own I keep running into problems. I have task from my university to make some kind of a pavilion or a viewpoint over a lake but I’m really struggling to make anything good. My initial idea was some kind of a wave shaped structure but I still don’t have the knowledge to make it. Do you have any tips or ideas how can I improve or do I need to join your community to get help from experts like u
