and a second one after 28 passes and 3,5 hours with preset 10 pp photoshop reduce noise and contrast [image: Q3Rz_com-neubruch-render014pp.jpg]

Very nice. I'd eat there.

Regarding the Render Software: I will quickly tell you that there are others here who can better serve you on this question. Maybe you can search through the Forum, see what has been discussed in other threads. There is at least one thread on best renderer. Just use keywords in the search box. Good Luck

@ honoluludesktop - That's what I was thinking as well. @ matsuo_lano - I like the aesthetic concept, but to be honest I don't really understand the design and I'm not sure how the structure is supposed to work. I'm particularly wary of the symmetrical design - it's usually an indication that someone is putting aesthetics over and above any consideration for the way spaces function and interact.....but I could be wrong. Some floor plans or cross sections would be useful.

thanks for the suggestions,,mr daniel and mr viztecture, I'll correct my mistake,, and after this I will certainly render look better......

I was awaiting your reply!!

Thanks omiKron. (your name seems like "omicron" to me the greek letter "o") Thanks fred and pilou Added the fish, its a new podium v2 render. [image: qKR0_venusTest22010-09-16.jpg]

I'd be interested in this too, what would an experienced sketchup user do/what would a good approach be if he wanted to model a detailed bathrobe that was hanging from a hook?

First off sorry it has taken me so long to post this its been lying around on my desk for almost a week now I took onboard some of the comments and have changed a few things, including the perspective which hopefully makes the car appear that bit wider. I also increased the refractive index of the body work I think that this is about right as anything shinier just looked silly, I tried messing with the material on the grill but it is still appearing that bit to plasticy as alway comments are really helpful [image: rollsroyce3pp3.jpg] thanks.

Thanks. Yes the door on this is the same as the panels. We can do HPL doors and drawer fronts if the customer wants it but they still will be PVC edge banded (like the panels). The clips are Keku clips as that chase is a service void. Used for med-gas and water supply and drains. I did a render showing a typical base unit and wall unit with hanging rail. I'll put those up after while. @dermotcoll said: Nice cut-away image Glenn. Do you make the door from melamine faced chipboard as well? Man that is tight budget stuff! Is the base just used as a service void ? And what are the clips on the interior of the base? Click fittings? Many questions - very curious! Really like the point of view and the detail being shown, very interesting.

The light coming through the windows looks warm and dreamy. Very nice effect.

Andrew - Fotosketcher applies adjustable filter-type effects to whatever image you bring in. It processes the image and allows you to save it. It is a simple application. Where it excels is the effects can be more realistic than the typical photoshop plugin intended to produce similar results. What you get out of fotosketcher relates to what you put in. It won't for instance remove the lines from your typical sketchup output. It can definitely be used as part of a 'Dennis' type method where individual images are overlaid. I attach a simple example featuring a holding cell. A sketchup 'colours-only' export was processed in fotosketcher. A 'line-only' export was processed with a photoshop filter (EyeCandy 'Jiggles') and they were overlaid with transparency. Regards, Ross [image: p4nD_overlays.jpg]

Foresight3D I like these designs

@ross macintosh said: Looks good Michalis. I like the rusty steel effect. Does Gimp support photoshop-compatible plugins? You need the Gimp plugin [pspi.exe] search in http://registry.gimp.org/search/node/pspi that loads/uses most PhotoShop plugins [.8bf]...

thank you Bryan.

Thank you and the model still needs more work, not quite finished, but if I can say that I have a lot of work, especially going to design the details as models.

very good render! I can only say the top of the machine is low-poli modelled

Really nice, Jan...!! I like the style A LOT...

Nice texturing, but nothing seems to catch my eye in the scene. IMHO it would look better if you would dim the lights a bit and turn the sun so that the stairs would be illuminted.
