ReplyDeleteThis week is not so much fun! Well, Sketchupwise it was, but the subject this week isn't!
I don't really like this challenge, after the cellphone, the camera, there's the cordless phone. Though if people could have fun with it, it's still great !
ReplyDeleteTwo of my propositions : A factory - A lighter .
well i had fun with it,but then again i am new to this
ReplyDeleteand if you all are wondering, no i do not have a phone like this haha all from memory =P
an idea for an upcoming challenge if it hasn't been done - somekind of power tool might prove challenging
I forgot to add in my logo - just my initials it's premade is that allowed? and if so can i edit my entry ?

cloudedzero
@clouded Zero. Nice model but wha does i am zorbo mean?
ReplyDeleteI also finished my model and i didn't cheat one bit! Go look at it!
Here are some pictures of it and the link below:

@randommodification...I think it was you but you said to add components so i did! Hope you like it more now! lol
ReplyDelete@TD2013,
ReplyDeleteThanks, much better. i liked the pics, looks almost identical to the real thing!
@TD2013;
ReplyDelete"Nice big screen and the phone is excellent. You've improved!"
Oh please, sh up! I know i'm a much better SKPer than you, and do i have to remind you that you lied and cheated the previous challenge?! If you made yours yourself this time, than YOU are the one that has improved... And i also need to add that your rating realy doesn't make any sense, cause last time with my Canon u said it just was a simple model with a picture on it and anyone could make this, believe me, it was a more complex model than this simple one. This is just a picture on some curves.... If for me, you don't have to say anything, please ;) Try entering as much models of your own as i did, than we'll talk.
I really don't know what to say
ReplyDelete@randommodification
-Thanks for looking at the pics, i hope others do. I was happy reading your comment until i read the next one!
@DesignsbyALX
-Umm...does your comment really make any sense? You clearly stated that i said you improved and yet...you still get mad at me. I clearly stated i was having a fresh start and you also admitted you use a bunch of pictures in your models. Also i dont like coky people. You said "i'm a much better SKPer than you" Since i had a fresh start i am starting to get one enemy(i wonder who?). So i ask everyone, does alex's comment make any sense?
I might reconsider my vote and rating for designsbyALX's phone!
ReplyDelete@dracoscove
ReplyDelete-Thanks for the 5 stars. I kind of thought that about the base put it is still classified as a home/cordless phone. Nice question though.
@designsbyALX
-Your right. the spot under the keypad isn't right. It's actually part of the base, i kind of incorperated it into the keypad so it's not all an exact copy of the real thing.
(P.S. You spelt Verizon like Verizone)
Guess i was anoyed by YOU saying that I have improved.... please :(
ReplyDeleteI looked arround in your collection, but it was all rubicubes and a lame pacman... sorry! But you're in the right place here, you can still learn a lot. (btw, what's your age?!?)
I'm going to take part of this conversation, I just have to say that I totally understand the Alex's behaviour, the fact that you've dared to tell me my kitchen was too simple compared with what you've done... I simply think you're not in a good position to criticize the models... So I can understand how much it's irritating to hear one's model is not good enough from you ! Same feedback for you pointing out to alex that he has improved himself ...
ReplyDeleteThough if you haven't stolen your model it's good and it's your best one so far.
Moboille, that's EXACTLY what i mean!
ReplyDelete@designsbyALX
ReplyDelete-I don't have that much to learn, i meen i used to like rubiks cubes look at the date those are all old and crappy. The pacman took like 30 seconds. So please look at my newer stuff! Oh and i will say i am atleast under 18. I'm not an adult for a while.
@Moboille
-How is saying someone improved critisism?
@Henkie Tenk
-Yeah i couldn't really get the shape perfect. I tried to change it but sketchup wasn't cooperating! I hate when that happens! lol
@TD2013
ReplyDeleteI am the first to say criticism is so helpful but you aren't in a good position. Take as example...
You take the liberty to say my kitchen is a little too easy but if you have noticed, my kitchen contains a microwave among some other appliances, take a look at it apart here
. Next look at your model. Your model is worth as an entire one whereas mine is simply a DETAIL among lots of other. And according to me mine it's better than yours... so I think if a single detail of mine kitchen looks better than your whole model ... So if my kitchen has to be rated 3 stars, how many stars does your models deserve ?
I want to have troubles with nobody, but I'm just quite irate when seeing you rating the kitchen whose I've taken the time to work on.
PS : I had left you a comment about it on your microwave last week.
LOL!!!, sorry :)
ReplyDeleteWhat ever!?!
ReplyDeleteI've lost my temper lol :)
ReplyDelete@DesignsbyALX and vampires
ReplyDeletedid you even download the model?
because
It has one...
cloudedzero
Yours, i didn't, but i see its a picture... Should i change my rating accordingly?! For some people i look OVER the picture fact, cause i do it myself sometimes, and You normaly post your own stuff. Want me to be more critical than ;) ?
ReplyDelete@All:
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to point out the fact that a lot of you still rely too heavily on textures as a mean to achieve detail in your models. I would love to see you all trying to steer away from that particular resource, since one of the goals of this forum is that you all be able to create highly detailed and very realistic models without textures as part of the detail. Furthermore, the use of textures seems to have been misleading when it comes to judging finished models.
Cheers,
Oz (partly off duty mod)
huh...good point!
ReplyDeleteI got a challenge proposition : An Art Deco building .
ReplyDeleteI'm starting with the 3d challenges this week, i have nothing else to do...

ReplyDeleteSee my blog entry and image gallery.
The personal attacks are really uncalled for. You know who I'm referring to. This is supposed to be a friendly challenge and should stay that way. There are enough bad things going on in the World, we don't need more of it here.
ReplyDelete@Jedi Charles
ReplyDeleteyour phone looks great... but when i click on it on the 3d warehouse or use your link it says it doesn't exist. did you remove it and then re-upload it or something? any ways i'll see if it works tommorow.
thats funny...i was going to do another entry with that exact ID555 by Philips! lol i bet you found it by searching cordless phone on google or something becuase that's how i found it!
ReplyDeleteHmm, just killing time till next challenge ;) I edited my Rosie, Ferrari style. The F1car, i build and UVmapped it with Blender!
ReplyDeleteMy latest render
@randomofodication
ReplyDeleteYou must have tried right as I was reuploading it. I decided to darken the color of the phone to improve the contrast against the light grey fog. The phone is intended to be black but using pure black in SketchUp is difficult because the details get washed out. I compromise by using dark charcoal which allows the details to show.
@TD2013
Yep, I used Google image search and found it. I use image search for research everytime I'm about to model something. It's not always helpful though. Some things are just not photographed for whatever reason; like "cordless phone battery door" or even "remote control battery door". Then I realize I have 3 remotes and a cordless phone right by my computer for me to look at all along.

Nice cohesive design and clean modelling.
1pts. Modern Cordless Phone
by deer in a headlite
I think the quality of the modelling of the handset was very good. I would have ranked the model higher but the bas station paled in comparison to the handset. Nice reflection effect.
Better late than never
