A-dooring this Project

The Project
For this project, we were working in Sketchup.  We had to create a 3D model of a house we found online.  I was able to learn how to use several new tools.  This project also helped me to get use to working in 3D software.

The Technique
For this project, I used a photo of a house online as my reference.  To make the house, I used the rotate tool, the line tool, the push/pull tool, the color tool, and the shape tools.  I had to measure the shapes I was creating and make sure that they matched the dimensions of the house online.  I had to use the measuring tool in order to check my dimensions and set certain objects an equal distance apart.  I also had to make sure that I was placing the shapes on the correct faces.

What I Learned
This project helped me get used to working in 3D.  I learned how to set the dimension of shapes and navigate my way around the software.  I learned how to move things around and rotate the camera as well.  If I were to do this project again, I would choose a different design for my house.  I would also change the colors.
