Modelling with Sketchup
Ice Cream shop
Pick a household object (desk, table, filing cabinet...) and recreate it in Sketchup
Find a house on the Web that you'd like to recreate
don't pick a house that is too simple nor too complex
For a challenge, export your image as a GIF (transparent background) and see if you can add it to a landscape photo, placing your house in a landscape.
When you finish your model, save the screen as a jpg image (to your drive) and embed it into your portfolio. Be sure to share the image with me so that I can see it.
Create useful anecdotes next to your image describing what you've learned.
