are they stacked, or just sharing an intimate moment?

great renders all, my favorite is the one with the man in the chair

Here's a quick Octane Render - took 50 secs to export [using my new exporter] and ~60min to process, up to ~1200s/px with 83,300 faces, glossy/specular etc for shiny metallic-plastic and tiles [I threw in some newspapers to confuse things] - but it could have stopped much sooner [15mins?]- [but I went to the pub - it is Friday p.m. !]

Thought I would have a try in Shaderlight, it is rendered with IES lights and also GI.

Cool....is this shaderlight for Max or SU? If yes for SU, are you going to release new beta?

martin-art

The render was done in Shaderlight for SketchUp.

The full release of Shaderlight for SketchUp which includes the artificial lighting features is planned for September so there’s not long to wait. We will be at Google Basecamp so if anybody is going, there will be a chance to get a sneak preview of the final release.

it looks good, although spot way too bright. will there be total control of point/spots/emitters? looks like a very appealing app, not had chance to do any testing though sorry. would be nice to have another weapon in the arsenal! what is expected price?

sepo

Thanks for reply Martin. I have ab invite but unfortunately I am not able to attend.

martin-art

Thanks for the feedback, there is full control of the lights including intensity, colour and direction. There will also be some new controls for HDR's and a new physical sky system.

The cost is going to be $199 for the Pro version of the software, there will also be a free version.

I don't know what it is about this chair but I love it. Maybe it's the composition of the render or the form of the chair but it's all great. Being new to the rendering world I've wanted to find a good model to test some material presets (from twilight) to get a good idea of what they will do. I want to make the relation to a painter painting simple objects to learn how to paint and study objects, but that might be a bit of a stretch. Here are some of my tests created from this wonderful model (thanks for sharing Olishea!!!) I didn't really do much other than changed the materials of each of the chairs. No post pro, just tweaks in twilight with hdri studio lighting on interior+ preset 10.

Cheers,
