Google Sketchup

I downloaded this in order to see what it was like. Looks like it can do some pretty cool things, Hylas obviously gets a lot of use out it. Anyone else seen or used it?

I saw the tutorial videos and was very impressed. If possible, use SketchUp as a modeller but then render your creations in some other program. The built-in rendering isn't too good, IMO.

I played with it a bit and it is pretty easy to quickly throw together a some basic 3D scenes.

If you check out the library there are quite a few simple examples of people putting together castles and other fortifications.  Some are pretty nice.

Don't know that I have the time to devote to getting good enough with it to produce useful images though.
