      I saw this house in a book some years ago.
      This is begging to be rendered, thanks! 👍

          Cool! I guess the bump for the concrete needs more work to make the gaps deeper... never used Twilight before, seems very similar to Maxwell or Fryrender output.

          Does Twilight pick up the SketchUP sun position if want to do a day render?

              I remember Pete doing a great job with this house a while back using Podium.

                OT: that Motiva Whatever Thingy looks sweet. Thanks for the tip, E.

                  @Ecuadorian,

                  Wow man, those last renders simply rock. Got to get my hand on the Motiva thing as well as it certainly enhances the output considerably.
                  Warming up the textures was a very good idea. Nice work!

                  @Ronen (Bakbek),
                  Good to see you posting again.
                  I remember you being a very active Pushpullbar member some years ago. I thought you completely converted to 3D Studio later on so it's good to see you are still using SU.

                    Thanks, Kwisten. I saw Pete's great images back in January when I started using SketchUp, and I've wanted to play with this house since then. And I finally have a model! 😄

                    I've just returned from a meeting, and I left another image cooking while I was away. I'll just post the Motiva RealCamera-processed version, again simulating an Agfacolor HDC 400 plus camera.

                      And here it is. I warmed up the SketchUp textures, and added a couple of things from the 3D warehouse. Bamboo plant by Biebel 👍

                      This is the raw Twilight output:

                      And this is after opening the .hdr and tonemapping it with a camera effect in Motiva RealCamera:

                          As d12 said, Twilight can use SketchUp's sun. It's just that I did the first test with the sun turned off and a completely white sky for a moody, monochrome look.

                          Twilight has several render presets available. Some of them work similar to Indigo/Maxwell/Fry and are called "unbiased"; others work similar to V-ray/Mental Ray and are called "biased".

                          For the first test I used an unbiased preset, Easy 09. For the following one I used a biased one. I also turned off the light for a change, and enabled the physical sky + sun with some tweaks to their default values. Lastly, I did some post-production in the freeware app Motiva RealCamera, trying to simulate an Agfacolor camera. 💚

                          UPDATE: I'm cooking another one with Easy 09, wait for it...
