Class 6, Assignment 3: Sketchup Christmas Tree with Ornaments

I wasn't sure how I wanted to start the tree.  I was thinking to use a cone shape, but then just made the stand instead.

More experiments with how I wished to make the tree.

I settled on using the polygon feature and shaving the edge off, creating a shape more akin to a Mayan temple.  Luckily the vegetation texture makes it look like a tree.

I had to go to youtube in order to learn how to make a 3D sphere in sketchup.  Placing ornaments was a pain.

Finished product.  Some translucent ornaments and some opaque ornaments adorn the tree on all sides.
