SketchUp 3D Challenge #203 - Pagoda

Monday, 24 February '14 - Thursday, 06 March '14

Pagoda
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A pagoda is the general term in the English language for a tiered tower, built in the traditions originating in historic East Asia or with respect to those traditions, with multiple eaves common in Nepal, India, China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Burma and other parts of Asia. Some pagodas are used as Taoist houses of worship. Most pagodas were built to have a religious function, most commonly Buddhist, and were often located in or near viharas. This term may refer to other religious structures in some countries. In Vietnam and Cambodia, due to French translation, the English term pagoda is a more generic term referring to a place of worship, although pagoda is not an accurate word to describe a Buddhist vihara. The modern pagoda is an evolution of the Ancient Nepal stupa, a tomb-like structure where sacred relics could be kept safe and venerated. The architectural structure of the stupa has spread across Asia, taking on many diverse forms as details specific to different regions are incorporated into the overall design.
For the purposes of this challenge you may design your own pagoda or model an existing design. Your pagoda must have at least three tiers.

Unmanned aerial vehicle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. Its flight is controlled either autonomously by onboard computers or by the remote control of a pilot on the ground or in another vehicle. The typical launch and recovery method of an unmanned aircraft is by the function of an automatic system or an external operator on the ground.
For the purposes of this challenge, you are free to model an existing drone or design your own from your imagination. You can use any type of aircraft design as long as it has no pilots or passengers and can be operated autonomously, remotely or both.

Monday, 03 February '14 - Thursday, 13 February '14


Pedal cars, or quadracycles, are 4-wheeled vehicles propelled by your feet. The term pedal car commonly refers to toys that resemble actual cars for children to ride, but the term also refers to go-carts, human powered taxis, and four-wheeled bikes.

For this challenge, you are allowed to model an existing pedal car or design your own. The only requirements is that it must have only 4 wheels and must be completely human powered for its propulsion.
