Hi Tom, glad to be of service! please post tips and work snaps of the WIP!!! i myself haven't tried the under painting method yet... but some day.. yes.. some day... @tomsdesk said: jj, (Is this our own member here Ernest Burden?) oh and yes.. i try my level best to fit into a such a great community!

beautiful plugin! thanks for the link! please feel free more than welcome to make some tutorials for us lesser photoshop users! Thanks again!

Thanks Boofredlay. All the images on my site were created by yours truly. The baseball Vilage is still a WIP. I really want to get back to creating some pure SU images, no post work. I have been itching to for a while now.

i really like the way these images are presented. It's a cross between a pure architecture drawing (since it is an elevation) and a photomontoge (which I suppose it is) nice work

Another one.... allanx [image: Shot%206_logo.png]

i gave it another try with KT not happy with the previous results check it out [image: scene%206_1.6.jpg] [image: scene%2015_%201.6.jpg] [image: scene%2017_1.6.jpg]

absolutly beautiful. Wonderful use of SU for massing and beautiful "painting" Great Work!

I picked it up at Target for 14 bucks. You guys are putting me to shame...all my time is eaten up by construction administration, so haven't had time to use SU or Podium, but it's been inspiring to see what everyone is posting.

thanks james.

Thanks for explaining.

Where is Paul BTW? Have not heard from him in a while.

Great images Tom. Looking forward to seeing the others

Hey toan76, sweet render! I showed it to some others on the SketchUp team and got a few "Woah! Very nice!" responses! Great to see another motorcyclist online too! Looks like you had some fun with your Monster at a track day! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing! Cheers, - CraigD

Thank you!

Stu, I see your point but these chests do actually look like this with the texture. they are thin layers of wood and it does repeat since they lay these layers next to each other - and keep the repetition on the drawers, too. But yes, I can try with some other textures, too and maybe will play around a little bit with different effects. Thanks for the comments anyway

Andy, I saw this first thing this AM, but had to wait till now to comment. This blew me away, your style(s) just get better and better. This is amazing and I love it. P Shaun Tennant

Hey, I don't mind crits, particularly from you two guys But I'm a bit stubborn .......or maybe its my monitor settings .......anyway dark, 'moody'[gloomy ] images can hide lots of imperfections

check out the attached photo... the circles I placed show some of the elements that really bring this render home for me... the subtle reflections and shadows made me double take on if this was real, model or composition of both... if the glass in the benz had been darker you might have had me... awesome job... great selection of camera location, really captured a future complete view...

I like them... They look really good...! Why don't you post them at the KT Forum...

Well, yeah. You know that endorphine rush is kind of addicting. Thank you.
