Toon Picnic Table for Google SketchUp

6,785 views | Posted by Michael Island on August 5th, 2009 | Bookmark This Post

Here’s a toon-style picnic table for SketchUp. I’m calling it “toon” because it has a more fun shape to it than a normal picnic table and because there are three versions of it: a basic version and two versions with the wood grain actually modeled in the surface. All of the file sizes are fairly small, too. The basic version is only 160kb and the grain versions are about 280kb each.

The cartoon version is colored with the edges softened, making it look like a cartoon. And the comics version is black & white with the edges softened, using a white color for the wood faces and a black color for the grain faces, making it look hand-drawn. The idea was to make it more useful for comics pencilers.

Note: for the comics version to look correct in your scene, you need to go to the “Shadow Settings” window and turn on shadows or “Use Sun for Shading” and set the “Dark” slider to 80 or more. If you don’t want shadows, just set the “Light” slider to zero. If you do want shadows, set it to 100.
