but what about your channel queen (sorry for off topic but it is a wonderful ship) you did that in Sketch Up, how do you make the hull?
Dexter, TFM is a bit more experienced in 3D modelling. And seen on your modelling (I don't say it's not good) you are quiet a beginner are you?
Well, people who want to grow their experience and skill do that by modelling and experimenting with different kind of tools so you can get used to the program and then you are able to make things easier, like making a smooth hull (and not a hull which looks likes it's been made out of lego). Also,
PLAN what you are going to make. Do a little research if it's about a real boat.
Unfortunatly it doesn't work like when you snap your fingers that you see a completely detailed cruiseship or anything else.
