Modeling a Snowman - Sketchup Tutorial Timelapse

Today we're going to model a snowman.
I always create my designs first on paper, but once I transfer the ideas into sketchup, the design often evolves, sometimes changing considerably.
Plugins I use in this video are:
Fredo Corner - Tutorial here: • FredoCorner extension ...
QuadFace tools - Tutorial here: • QuadFace Tools Tutoria...
Random tools - Tutorial here: • Memory Copy, Helix Alo...
Fredo Tools - Thru Paint - Tutorial here: • Thru Paint - UV Mappin...
Vertex Tools
Vray for Sketchup
If you want to follow along with all the steps, and recreate this exact model yourself, I suggest you set the speed of the video to 0,25. That way you can follow the tutorial with no problem. But If you’re just here for the speed build timelapse, just sit back and enjoy the video as is, or you can even double the speed.
In the lower right corner of your screen you can see what I’m typing but beware, I don’t use Sketchup default shortcuts as you’ll probably notice, but I’ll list all my custom shortcuts bellow.
Shortcuts:
Ctrl+1 - Select tool
Ctrl+Q - Draw line
Shift+A - Draw arc
Ctrl+W - Mirror tool (plugin)
Ctrl+Shift+X - Move tool
Ctrl+Shift+A - Offset tool
Ctrl+R (or R) - Rotate tool
Alt+Y - Hidden geometry (on/off)
Ctrl+D - Tape measure
S - Scale tool
E - Eraser
C - Draw circle
Y - Draw rectangle
V - Paint bucket (Alt - Eyedrop tool)
A - Push pull
The rendering is done with Vray plugin for sketchup, but I keep it extremely simple. I just increase the size of the sun to get that soft shadows effect and work around reflections and bump of the material.
