Excercise 2
This excercise was more difficult than the other excercises. In this Google Sketch excercise we used a variety of tools, such as the squar tool, the arch tool, and the the pencil tool. The building drawn in this excercise included more features such as detailed windows, detailed roofiing and sidind. This execercise demonstrated that a well detailed building could be generated using Google Sketch 7.

Excercise 1
This google sketch exercise demonstrated how detailed bulidings could be easinly created. This excersie took a simple rectangle and used the push/pull tool to turn it into a 3-dimensional prism. Then I used different tools to add details such as windows, doors, and coloring. The paint bucket tool was used to add the color of the roofing and siding to the house.

Lesson 3
This Google Sketch tutorial showed how to use more of the tools in depth. The tutorial demonstrated how the pencil tool could be used to draw simple things such as stairs ,decks, and support beams. The push/pull tool was used to transform the 2-dimensional sketches of stairs, decks, and support beams into 3-dimensional models. The tutorial also showed us how to change the color styles of the sketches.

Lesson 2
Today I learned the different functions of Google
sketch up. Google sketch allows you to use a variety of life-like effects. From shadows to texture Google sketch allows
you to create 3-d dimensional sketches using different tools.
1.
the push/pull works on any flat surface,
horizontal, or vertical
2.
sketchup in the tools will snap or infer to corners,
edge and any other geometry
3.
you can use the navigation tools to look around
the models
4.
go to the menu and and look for self paced to
access more help
5.
you can click somewhere in the sketchup and move
away and click again
6.
its not really a good idea to have rectangle crossing over
each other
7.
when using the orbit to look around the
rectangle its just a flat surface
8.
but often you can start by drawing flat shapes
and then pull them up into 3d
9.
use the push/pull icon the make the rectangle
look 3d
10.
the pan tool is a hand shape icon
11.
the tool is used to panning the model back and
forth across the screen
12.
you hold the mouse button down and move your
mouse around
13.
the orbit, zoom, and the pan are all navigation
tools
14.
you have to be able to move around in 3d space
easily to use those tools
15.
the rectangle tool is a simply click with the
mouse

1.
2d drawings are limited to the paper they are
drawn on.
2.
3d drawings are more realistic and are usually
more detailed.
3.
The orbit tool allows you to view the surrounds
of an object in Google sketch.
4.
The orbit tool doesn’t rotate the actual model, but
allows you to rotate around the model.
5.
The zoom tool allows you to zoom in and zoom out
on Google Sketch.
6.
The pan tool allows you to pan back and forth
across the screen.
7.
Orbit, Zoom, and Pan are all navigation tools.
8.
To work
in Google sketch you must be able to easily move around a 3d space using the navigation
tools.
9.
The rectangle tool allows you to draw rectangles
of various dimensions.
10.
The rectangles drawn using the rectangle tool are
2d, not 3d.
11.
The push/ pull tool allows you to turn 2d shapes
into 3d shapes.
12.
The push/tool works on any flat surface,
vertical or horizontal.
13.
The push/pull tool is used to make things
longer, wider, or taller.
14.
You begin product will start of flat.
15. The paint tool allows you to color, texture, etc
