Overview

This course is aimed at an intermediate level audience and assumes some knowledge of working with SketchUp. It will follow on from the “Getting started in SketchUp” course.

  • This is not designed as a “model-along” course
  • It will suit PC or Mac users
  • It will use SketchUp pro (2025) and is not suitable for Web/ iPad versions of the software.

The objective is to take you from having some working knowledge of SketchUp and to refine your skills, explore more advanced techniques and use a workflow that allows you to approach modelling in a more efficient way. The course will start with a review of first principles to help attendees improve their workflow and perhaps undo acquired habits.

The program will approximately follow the schedule below.

Week 2: Adding textures
Week 3: Advanced texturing
Week 4: Simple terrain
Week 5: Terrain 2
