definately more of the look she was going for, very nice and thank you for all the tips and work you put into the images. I will show here and she wat she thinks.

haha ya think? Thanks!

teofas - Thanks so much for making that carpet tutorial. It's simple, direct and easy to master. I'm just learning V-Ray so it really helped me. Alex

Reminds me of my Seattle Class, a ship I drew last year around the same time as your first post. [image: afewnew.jpg] http://s479.photobucket.com/albums/rr153/seattle221/Seattle%20class/?start=20

Reminds me a little of that VOyager-inspired apartment some guy in the UK built a year or two ago!

I dont really know enough about architecture to give you a good critique of the design

DCs in lightup you say, very interesting indeed. Does this work in the current release? I feel some demoing coming up...

Brillant work, a refreshing change of style in the gallery!

Nice renders - I know youre a busy man, but one day you have to translate all your website into English

@david, I don't think I have ever laughed because of a render before about the black glass - I like to use the same look. I think people over do glass in their renders which causes an unrealistically flashy effect. When I look at most buildings with similar windows to your render, the glass always appears dark and more opaque in the sunlight - if anything I would say your windows are not dark enough! I suppose it is up to debate

not bad for first renderings

I hope we can finally put this issue behind us in version 8. It's not funny...it's ridiculous. How can you call your software "PRO" IE sketchup PRO version and still have this major of a BUG in the application. Why would it matter where the camera is relative to the sun and the shadows that the sun cast when it hits solid objects. It's time that Google use some of it's brain power and solve this issue once and for all. OK I'll get off my soap box now.

@solo said: Face me does not work with Vray, you need to uncheck the face me and position them individually. Why is this? Vray for sketchup renders inside of SU so the faceme will always face the Vray camera. Unless he's rendering in Max or something. Do you think he means he's having trouble with transparency and alpha maps?

It was rendered with Kerkythea.

you're right, I used shift in the images. Works great actually and saves rendertimes by getting the frame where you want it at wide angle views. The PS work was just a afterthought really, For all images (5 in total) less than an hour. We are usually making these images in the designproces and so we are not all that good at the photowork with green and people. But I see some here spending proper time and talents to really work up a rendered image up to photorealism. I might get into that a little more when I have the time.

you have any idea how to export the animation into a video, we would like to export the animation we did in skethup physics in to an video as then it would be easy for the presentation....

oke me again... another mapping issue, did tried all the tricks but i cant seem to get it right. started to learn blender to learn some UVmapping [image: 1eia_Afbeelding45.png]

Thanks for the feedback. Gai- yup its a limitation of the software that makes the tours. The new version fixes this but it's a $200USD upgrade. I can't swing the upgrade right now. It's possible to do a tour of a SU model like the ones on the site. I think it would be cool to have both the virtual and the actual available on the same tour.

On a presentation aspect, I think its fantastic. A little over the top in regards to contrast and reflections, yet I find it part of the appeal. I'm a big fan of your artistic render style.
