        I like very much the render. I see that all your vue renders have a very convincing environment and entourage. What are Vue's advantages over other render engines? What's the workflow between sketchup and Vue ? I mean, is it possible to model in sketchup and render in vue? Thanks

                  I can see the images NOW. I guess imageshack has some bandwidth problems from time to time.

                  Cool render, Pete! πŸ‘

                      Thanks guys.

                      Gaieus, Imageshack every now and again have that issue, but hey it's free.

                      ibon, You ask a good question and I am not sure I have an answer, Vue is more of a landscape art rendering app, well at least that was the intension I believe, I use it because it gives me more creative license than any other rendering app, I have control over atmospheres better using Vue than any other rendering app. Vue has a rather steep learning curve if you plan to master all the features, yet pretty simple to do the basics. I got tired of the same looking sterile arch-viz renders that did the job of displaying the final product but lacked a sense of atmosphere, feeling, warmth.
                      As for your second question, yes, in fact that is exactly what I do, I model with GSU and render with Vue or Podium.

                      cadmonkey and chango70, which one? bloom or no bloom, I guess it's relative to ones taste, I chose to use it to soften the image and give it a dreamy feel.

                      tinanne, I desaturated and added 'soft focus' in PP, and added my logo and cropping. No matter what render software I use I end up doing some PP, I have a little OCD and cannot help myself. πŸ˜‰

                        Looking really nice, but a bit to blurry IMO but no big deal ;]
                        Damn.. I should really consider learning Vue I think..
                        So your tutorial will come as glory to me :]

                            Nice work solo, Vue looks really interesting. What file format are you exporting from SketchUp?

                              Dale,

                              I save the model as .skp, then open it in an app called 'Deep Exploration' and convert it to .3ds, which I then import into VUe without any UV issues.

                              I did another render this afternoon, I changed the roof texture and used displacement, I also changed the car and less 'soft focus'

                                Was this the model you rendered with Podium a while back as a night scene? I remember seeing the fountain with a blue light.

                                    Nice render!!!the car is a very very realistic model but there is something to improve such us the roof and the asphalt ground; I think you need a very nice texture for the roof looking for at

                                    If you want I can post an example of mine about a roof rendered by kerkythea; I've improved the texture adding a procedural one to make a realistic effect.

                                      What's this Jack bird action about?

                                      Slam Dancing big boink, I was under the impression that 3DS export was all inside of Sketchup, in that SketchUp will out put said file format.

                                      Am I dancing alone?

                                        Durant,

                                        GSU does indeed export to .3ds, however the conversion is a hit or miss, with DE I get a great conversion without any problems.

                                          I use Cheetah 3d (mac user) for good 3d exports as well. Is the rendering process more "Podium" or "Kerkythea" like in complexity?
