I made this in Google Sketchup. I know the texture needs work.

C&C welcome.

Nice model. Though if used as a mass piece (like most fences) you should save polycount with the use of texture instead of actual geometry....Keep up the good work and thanks for donating to the community!

I am Jacks complete lack of surprise.

Hmm, are the bars evenly spaced?

The far right 2 are a little screwed up, because of SketchUp's annoying habit of placing things in the middle of the line. Other than that, they're as eveny spaced as I could get them.

@Crusader2 If sketchup places things in the middle of the line, then center your fence frame, then add pickets, just a thought. other than of center, looks good

I'd have to say that's a good fence for your first attempt.

Once the modeling bug hits you watch out, you'll be kicking all sorts of content in no time.

Well done.

Another note, the texture appears to be only 256x256, you should feel free to make it larger, to 512. For buildings, characters etc you should probably go for 1024.

Thanks for the tip.

I hope; it's a skill I really need.

The thing being that this is a free texture directly from SketchUp, so I'm gonna need a better one to use in the future.
