Google Sketchup Tutorials April 1, 2009
Posted by James in Tutorial.1 comment so far
Lately I’ve been trying to learn some new 3D application to add to my skills. My major problem in self learning is I lack the patience and time in learning complicated programs.
I’ve tried looking for tutorials on some of the 3D programs available here in the office and realized that a lot of the things this programs provide can be achieved in Max. One program though has caught my attention. Google sketchup is a very easy to use and powerful program, another advantage is it has low minimum requirements.
I’ve posted some links on some tutorials on my other blog “Art and Architecture”, If your interested in learning this program check out those links.

In order to use this tutorial you should have VRay plug-in installed
1. First thing you should do is make a plane about 4m x 4m for your vray fur
2. You then go to create menu>geometry>vray
3. the vray submenu will then appear.
4. click VRayFur and you should see something like this
5. adjust the values of the highlighted portions accordingly
6. Hit render. You should see a result like this.
7. Apply some grass materials to the VRay Fur and plane
8. Hit render. There you have it a grass using VRay Fur.
Just some minor notes:
1. If ever your using a larger plane for your grass add a 1M subdivision to your plane.
2. You cant use uvw maps on Vray fur.
