Really nice collection and overview of capabilities here. I’ve yet to dive into the videos, but in my line of work I think this workflow might be the way to go. Thanks.

I’m still not convinced that this is the right place for promoting the migration from SketchUp to Blender * ahum *

The way I see it, it’s not so much a migration but an integration. Blender, in these cases, is used primarily as a renderer, filling in the job that SketchUp can’t do. As a designer who creates physical experiences, this is very appealing to me as an alternative to far more expensive, complicated and SLOW options out there.
