So if you're ready to discover how to create all these new elements, it's ketchup. Click the blue enroll button below this video and I'll see you in sight 2. How to Create the Porch Columns in 3D: Hello and welcome to this new class. In this video, I will show you how to create a three D porch off our house with the help of this drawing, with its exact measurements that you can see on your screen. Our porch contains five columns on defense between each one of them, and we will start by creating the columns off are pretty porch. In order to do that, we will open the treaty model that looks something like this. If you have followed all the periods lessons from this course on before creating the first column, we will create its layer by clicking the plus sign within the layers window and renaming the layer one toe Borj Boesch holds press center and select this layer toe. Make it active. Now zoom in a little bit. So, like the tape measure told to create the first set off guidelines that are 10 centimeters from this left side and this other site off the basement and then, by using the rectangle to we will create the basis off our column that is 20 by 20 centime to speak, so the rectangle tool draw a rectangle and in the bottom right corner. Enter 20 comma wet when you do that, and in order to create three D so like the push pull toe. However, over the basis, click on it. Move your mouse up and in the bottom right corner and 300 for its height of 300 centimeters . To make it the group, select the selection tool. Triple click on it, right click on it and select the main group option from the drop down menu. As you can see on this, drawing the distance between every column is 345 centimeters. So we'll go back to our model, create another guideline that is 345 centimeters. And then So I moved to click the bottom left corner on the colon. And in order to make its copy, press the cultural key on your keyboard dragons tobe a parallel to the red Xs and then click again. Now you may the first copy off your column, but instead of doing it four times as I've already show you, all you need to do is to enter four and X in the bottom right corner, so make four copies on the first cold. If you want to check is everything is okay. And the problem is 10 centimeters from this side off the basement. So, like tape measure toe, click here and then click here. And as you can see, it's 10 centimeters from this site off the basements. So that would be all for this video. I'll see you in the next one where I will show you how to create a fenced off our porch. 3. How to Create the Porch Fence in 3D: Hello and welcome to the next video. In the previous one, I have shown you how to create a treaty columns off our treaty porch, and in this one I will show you how to create offense off the porch. Before I started doing that, I will go back to the drawing with exact measurements where I can see that the high toll defense is 100 centimeters, and that defense is created by two horizontal elements and several vertical elements. So going back to the treaty model, the first thing I will do is to create a new layer renamed the Layer One Abortion Dash Friends Press Center on Select this layer toe Make it active. Now everything is ready to create offense. So I was zooming a little bit. And by using the tape measure tool, I will first define the height off the fence by entering one found in the bottom right corner. After that, I will mark the height of the first horizontal element, which is five centimeters. The vertical element is 81 centimeters, and the second horizontal element is for centimeters. After doing that, I was create another vertical guideline in the middle off the column at 10 centimeters, and now I'm ready to create the first for result of element, which is a centime to swipe. So I would create the guideline at four centimeters to the right, on four centimeters to the left. By using the rectangle tool I would create a rectangle on. By using the push total, I will create its length off 345 centimeters, which is the exact distance between two Collins. After that, I will triple click this new element, right click on it and select the main group option to make it a group when it's created. I don't know, create the bottom horizontal element that is four centimeters. Why? So I will need a new set off guidelines that are two centimeters to the right on two centimeters to the left. By using the rectangle tool, I will create rectangle on with a push. Balto. I will define its length off 345 centimeters. Again, people click on it, right click on it and make it to group. Now I'm ready to create a vertical elements off the fence, and the 1st 1 is 25 centimeters from the column so I will enter 25 in the bottom right corner on the with all the element is four centimeters. By using the rectangle tool, I will create its base on by using the push. Balto, I will make it three d off 81 centimeters, so fit in perfectly between two horizontal elements. After that title, triple click on it, right click on it and make it to grow. Now I want to make a copies off this vertical elements, so I will again use the tape measure tool and create the distance between vertical elements , which is 25 centimeters. When I zoom in a little dates with the move toe, I will click the lower left corner off the elements, drag it to the right, taking care off the time parallel to the red access. Then, while doing that, press the control key on my keyboard and then click it on the intersection off this horizontal element and guideline. Now, before doing anything else, end in order to create the copies off this vertical element, Enter 10 and X in order to create 10 copies off this word to go element. As you can see, we have created defense, and now we need to select all these elements off the fence and make them a group in orderto copy them between other calls off our porch. We will do that by using the selection tool and by creating direct angle over the fence from left to right to select all the elements, right Lee Konitz and make it a group. Now I can create the copies off this fence between the rest of the column, so I will select defense. And by using the copy tool, which is the combination of the move tool and the control key on your keyboard, I will sell like this corner dragged offense, toe the right being peril to the red axes and click the lower left corner off the second column and then in the bottom right corner, out of banter. Tree acts in order to make three copies because I don't need dispense here, click on it on village. This is it for this video. By following the instructions from it, your task will be to create these side fence off the porch, and I'm looking forward to see your results in the next video. Bye for now, 4. How to Create the Roof in 3D: hello and welcome to the next lesson in the previous one. I have shown you how to create offense for the treaty porch. And if you care, followed all the instructions from previous to medians. Your pretty port should look something like this. Him. That's the case. You are not ready to create a final treaty element off the house which will be the trader off before doing anything else. Created new layer by pressing the plus sign within the layers in the rename layer. Want to roof press center on dso like this new layer toe Make it active. The first element off the treaty roof will be its eaves that we want to be 50 centimetres wider on all four sides off the house And in order to determine its size, we will first need to measure our basement. So we will use the tape measure tool and starting from this corner, the first dimension is 1500 the 2nd 1 is 1140. We really was the rectangle tool like this, cooling off the house and taking care of that. Your parallel to the surface playing the second corner and enter 1600 by 540 in the bottom right corner to determine its dimensions by using the post. Balto, however, over it after 20 toe, make a treaty on 20 centimeters heart. Now, by using the selection toe triple click on it. But this time we will not make it a group because we want just to move it, toe its proper position, use the move toe, click on the surface and by moving in parallel to the green, access after 50 to move it. 50 centimeters. Do these side, and by being barreled through the red access and 50 move it to the rights. If you orbits over the house, you can see that the roof eaves are perfectly positions. The next element saw the roof that we want to create our hips and rich. In order to do that, we will use another great tool reading sketch up, which is the protractor tool, which you can use to measure angles and create guidelines. So click on it to select it and then click this corner here and then click on the edge and by moving your mouse and then to read 45 in the bottom right corner. You will create a guideline that is 45 degrees from these edge off. The thieves now rotate by using the orbital. Click this corner here and then this edge and then again entered 45. Now rotate the house. Click here on the edge on again 45 and for the fourth here, click this quarter here, the search here and enter 45. Now you have determined the guidelines for the kids, and it's time to use the pencil tool to draw them together with original house like this, then draw the third hip and the fourth. As you can see, our roof is flat and in order to make a treaty only to do is to use the move toe Hauer over the ridge of the roof. Click on it and by moving its peril, toe the said axis and the 115 the bottom right corner to make its height off 150 centimeters. This is the easiest way to create a trading roof that looks perfect, and now you can triple click your roof right click on it and make it a group that will be the final treated element off the house. In the next video, I will show you how to add the colors on the materials to make it look more natural. Thanks for watching, and we'll see you in the next video. 5. How to Add Materials to the 3D Model: Hello and welcome to the new class. In this video, I will show you how toe add materials to the components off your three D model. In order to do that proto window on from the drop down menu Select materials. A new window will open with the pre selected colors category, but if you click on the drop down menu, you can see that there are a lot of other categories on the list.
