Shutters with details

Hi all,

 

trying to find answers on net and here on forum but so far with no luck.

Doing some exteriors of houses mostly with shutters on windows and balcony doors.

Will like to see more detailed shutters with hinges and hooks. Any of you have found best way to deal with it? Creating my own GDL object? Can't seem to find any usefull to download. I use standard Archicad shutter but will dive in GDL if that's what is needed for more detailed renderings. 

 

Anyway, any push in the right dirrection is more then welcome.

 

Thank you in advance,

I code a lot of GDL, but when it comes to shutters I just use slabs and match the design I'm after.

But if you are going to use the shutter over and over it may be worth writing your own.

Thank you for you answer (altho little late). I guess I will start reading and learning about GDL soon. Will see how it goes.

Thanks again and happy holidays!
