SketchUp 3D Challenge #186 - Legendary Creatures

Thursday, 29 August 2013 - Monday, 09 September 2013

Legendary creature

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A legendary creature is an animal whose life is accounted in non-historical or yet to be verified stories that sometime involve the supernatural. However, other legendary animals, such as the unicorn, were documented in accounts of natural history by various scholars of antiquity. Due to the lack of fossils of these creatures, the veracity of these historical recordings is questioned by modern zoologists.
In this challenge you are free to model any kind of legendary or mythological creature you like. This is not to be confused with mythological gods, divine and semi-divine beings.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to Ghost for the challenge suggestion.

SketchUp 3D Challenge #185 - String Instruments

Monday, 19 August 2013 - Thursday, 29 August 2013

String instrument

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
String instruments are musical instruments that produce sound from vibrating strings. In the Hornbostel-Sachs scheme of musical instrument classification, used in organology, they are called chordophones. Some common instruments in the string family are guitar, sitar, rabab, electric bass, violin, viola, cello, double bass, banjo, mandolin, ukulele, bouzouki, and harp.
In this challenge you are to model a string instrument of your choice.  There are a lot of fine details in string instruments so be sure not to leave those out or you might hit a sour note.  So fiddle with your fiddle and harp over your harp, but, most importantly, have fun.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to Daniel_Papen for the challenge suggestion.

SketchUp 3D Challenge #184 - Racktrack

Thursday, 08 August 2013 - Monday, 19 August 2013

Race track

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A race track (or 'racetrack', 'racing track' or 'racing circuit') is a facility built for racing of animals (e.g. horse racing or greyhound racing), vehicles, or athletes. A race track also may feature grandstands or concourses. Racetracks are also used in the study of animal locomotion. Some motorsport tracks are called speedways.

A racetrack is a permanent facility or building. Racecourse is an alternate term for a horse racing track, found in countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia, Hong Kong, and the United Arab Emirates. Race tracks built for bicycles are known as velodromes. Circuit is a common alternate term for racetrack, given the usual circuitous configuration of most race tracks, allowing races to occur over several laps.
In this challenge you are to model a complete race track ready for a race including areas for spectators. You may create a track for animals, vehicles or athletes.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to SCIFI LICIOUS for the challenge suggestion.
