Photoshop in SketchUp
-
I tend to only use SU and podium, occasionally I'll use PS but as my skills and time are limited I tend not to.
Just wondering what the main alterations are that people do to their renders. I have seen a watercolour effect used.
What are you shopping into or out of your images.

Andrew Haskins did his thesis on showing a few examples of sketchup photoshop rendering. Here is a 14mb pdf of of his thesis. It mostly talks about a few of the main techniques that have been presented on these forums over the years:

Personally I use photoshop alot in my renders, along with what thom thom suggested I also:
- add glows, god rays, flares
- tweak textures, add grunge maps, add grass in foreground
- add vignetting, colour gradients, depth of field and grunge/film noise overlays
- overpainting with a tablet and boosting/cheating reflections on some floors
In my workflow often a raw render is 50% of the final image, like I have said before photoshop and post is where i make my money.

You have Piranesi which is a real "3D Photoshop"
The link seems to be closed just now: http://www.piranesi.co.uk/ (hope it's only temporary
) so I send a You Tube link as examplehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO2KKD5rJTo&feature=channel_page
Fotosketcher is only for PC
EDIT:
Bad news: searching the Piranesi link to send it here, I found that Informatix editor of Piranesi has some real problems:http://www.informatixsoftware.com/forums/showthread.php/3122-Informatix-Inc.-Japan-Statement
