A PETA Friendly Way to Slice Animals... in SketchUp! LIVE!

Aaron is back, and this week he’s brought a secret weapon: SketchUp newcomer Ashley! We’re diving into the digital anatomy of 3D models to show you exactly how to slice, section, and layer complex shapes without breaking a sweat (or any laws).

Question is… What animal should Aaron model and Ashley slice up? Let us know in the comments down below, and be sure to tune in next Friday (March 6th) at 12pm MST on YouTube, LinkedIn, or Facebook

An aardvark, naturally. It rhymes with Aaron, is first in the alphabet, and looks suitably funny. And its Finnish name means “land-pig” but the same word in Estonian means “strawberry”…

A snake! No, wait a minute! That’s to easy. How about a Gryphon or a dragon? Praying mantis?

100% aardvark. :white_check_mark:

wait, isn’t there a mantis shrimp or something that is like a shrimp + a praying mantis + rainbows ?

You’ve got me vote for the Mantis “Mike Tyson” Schrimp!

Your digital version might be a little more animal friendly.

Hi everyone – change of plans! @TheOnlyAaron is out sick today, so we’re moving the stream to next Friday, March 6th. :spiral_calendar:

Aaron will be back in action then to model and slice up an aardvark live. Let’s all use this time to rest up (you included)… because next Friday is going to be awesome!

Get well soon @TheOnlyAaron but @JustinH couldn’t you have stepped in to do a live stream rather than making me spend time with the family? or maybe you @Donovan or @matt_robison ?

I am a SketchUp modeler on iPad, and we haven’t quite figured out yet the west way to do a long form live with just the iPad
