      Kerkythea is awesome.
      Blender could be an option if you can overcome conversion and a steep learning curve.

        There are a few good, free render programs for Sketchup. Have a look at blender aswell..

        I don't mind rendering your car in Blender just for you to see the effects. Of course I would not claim it as my own etc..

          Post the model for everyone to render, that way if anyone ever claims it to be theirs you can link to this thread and show them you posted it yourself and it's your model.

          And what you end up with is a lot of different renders from many folks.

            If you'd be willing to share the model, I'd be happy to take a stab at it. I'm using the full version of Maxwell render.

                I understand your need to advertise your product, but this thread is 3 years old, I'm pretty sure he's moved on from this model.

                    Here you go, rendered a car in minutes on my laptop, used Indigo Renderer.

                    Rendered with Indigo v4.0.45 on GTX860m GPU.

                        That is a standard one that comes with the benchmark version. So I didn't do any tweaking of sorts (somebody else did all that and saved the file ready for render), just loaded it up and hit render.
