Hi all
I am new to the forum, so I will introduce myself briefly,
Im sean, a railway modeler by profession, and fairly handy on all things aside, I have some unusual ideas, so I hope i can give them life in 3D generated modeling, I use Google Sketchup alot for work, so i shall be sticking with it for the time being.

OK so first up I intend to try to make a couple of basic hull forms in the next few days.

I would apresiate any thoughts on them...

Hi Sean,

I'm new here too, with very similar hobbies :)
http://decapod99.wordpress.com/

I've turned my 3D ship models into solid objects in 1250 scale using shapeways
(not using sketchup but that does work too)

Still trawling this forum for info (if you'll excuse the pun) :)

Cheers, :thumbs_up_1:
