Amazing but I think we can improve your method a little bit. You don’t need to create your details like this because you lose the connection to your model end up redrawing 2D stuff again and again . I think it is better to create your details model in sketchup and save a variation of it and bring them all to layout and use them as skrapbook and every time that you need them you just drag and drop them the good thing there is it will be easier for you to create templates and then automate the most of sketchup .
Thanks @bellousow2607. As with everything in SketchUp, there are a number of ways to do these things. I know architects you keep a library of detail 'viewports' in a layout scrapbook they they reuse. Personally I prefer to do as much in SketchUp as I can. I save these details as components and then create a new model, with my live building model inserted and then adapt or build these detailed vignettes around it. If the building design changes, the model updates and I just need to revise the details
Great video, thanks! But how did you do the hatching in Sketchup? With Skalp?
Thanks. I dont use Skalp. I simply drew the hatches with linework in Sketchup and then saved this to my material library
