    tim-

    you bring up a good point..atmosphere is difficult to convey in hand drawn work. all I can think of at the moment is airbrush..

  • Tim Zhang posted an update in the group Group logo of GraphicsGraphics 14 years, 9 months ago

    Thank you again, Daniel for the great seminar on sketchup and vectorworks. I highly recommend Daniel Tal as a resource-
    My thanks goes to the APLD and Robin and Cynde for their efforts with getting Daniel to SF. When is the next seminar-

    Hello, I’m new here and I want to learn all about the sketch up, I wish to report and utilized, greetings and respects to you

  • Andrew Spiering posted an update in the group Group logo of SketchUpSketchUp 14 years, 9 months ago

    Just a general recommendation… it is best to ask your questions in the group forum rather than in the comment box.

    If you haven’t read Daniel’s book, it is THE place to learn. Other sources will help you learn the basics of SketchUp, but this book demonstrates the techniques and workflow that LA’s can use. Thanks for writing it Daniel!

    Great idea starting this group!
    I’ve read Daniel Tal’s book, and it is very helpful in breaking down the process of creating efficient 3D models. This group should be a good place to share ideas and learn new tips.

    Daniel – Thanks for inviting me. I am an avid user of SketchUp. I have learned quite a bit from your You Tube demonstrations. I have not bought your book yet, but I think I am on my way of making SketchUp work for site design.

    Oops, Daniel’s book!

    Hi All,

    Thanks for inviting me to be part of this Group. I run a similar Group on http://www.landscapejuicenetwork.com over in the UK and return the invite to you all if you want to join us too (we have about 31 members at the moment).

    I received Dabiel’s book as an xmas present but must admit that I have not gotten to reading it yet.

    Hi James,
    Actually, my professor introduced me to your work this past summer, my first semester in LA, and it was he who let me know about your rendering techniques and color usage. In fact, our first shot at perspectives involved 20 minute perspective-making sessions that aimed to emulate your graphics.
    I could only hope that if he hadn’t told…[Read more]

    Hi Vanessa; glad you’re having success with the colored pencil techniques. You have a good eye! I do use a cream pencil combined with peach on almost all buildings and hardscape at the very beginning of coloring a drawing, then wash over them with whatever color will best depict the material I’m envisioning…terra cotta, slate blue. etc. The…[Read more]

    Nick,
    Thanks! I’ll probably be doing more of these in the future and I would like to seed them be as representative of the true design as possible.

    Thanks!

    Eric-

    I got your message. I need to make some evergreens for a plan tomorrow as fate would have it. I’ll post my steps here or shoot you a message.

    Eric,

    I couldn’t tell you how to do it using drop shadows, but I could offer some good advice on doing it manually in photoshop without creating numerous layer copies and keeping the file size down.

    send me a message if you still need help with this and I’ll explain some simple tricks.

  • Eric Shepley posted an update in the group Group logo of GraphicsGraphics 14 years, 12 months ago

    Does anyone have good method for doing evergreen shadows in photoshop with the drop shadow?

  • Vanessa Ruiz posted an update in the group Group logo of GraphicsGraphics 15 years ago

    James Richards is great. I love his simple color palette. He blends darker colors in his lighter colors to make things look cohesive. For instance, he used carmine red and true blue (i think it was true blue) prismacolor color pencils over cream to create this really nice effect. So, the cream hardscape and buildings really popped after i tried to…[Read more]
