Or is your model destined for the big screen? Test out your ideas for a production set by placing movie cameras in models of production sets. If your model needs to reflect specific terrain, you can add terrain to your model, too. Is your model lost in space? SketchUp’s geolocation feature enables you to place your model anywhere on Earth. Keep track of what appears where by using the Outliner. Have you created a monster? Organize complex geometry with groups or layers. (You can also develop your own components.) Similarly, SketchUp’s style presets enable you to apply attractive color schemes and line styles with one click. With SketchUp, you don’t have to reinvent the wheel - or the IKEA furniture, windows, doors, kitchen cabinets, or myriad other items that are already available as components or dynamic components. Would you like a few details done for you? We all need a helping hand - especially if your hand is cramped after drawing a detailed 3D model. If there's something you wish we had, let us know on our forum Products. These generic components are free for you to use in your projects. Make your 3D model look realistic (or extraordinary!) by adding color, materials (such as brick or tile), textures, photos, and more. Here at SketchUp HQ, our mission is to help our users be better, smarter, and more successful with SketchUp.

SketchUp nevertheless supports visual creativity. Is your model naked? No, this isn’t a figure-drawing art class with human models.

If you’re a beginner, the articles about getting started, drawing, and viewing a 3D model help you transition into a 3D mindset.
