      I am preparing a video tutorial on my rendering process using Thea plugin inside sketchup. I've tried to be comprehensive and easy to follow . I mean it covers material creation, lighting, modeling tips, render setting both architectural and object rendering.... while I have been facing 2 major barriers: stuttering that has accompanied me from the very first day I remember speaking and also the fact that English is not my native language. This has been a real battle to me to tackle both situations but I am doing it. πŸ˜† I hope it helps other to satisfy their clients and brings me some money also.

        Both previous renders were using Presto engine and almost in 1 min each. The current one is using same engine but bucket rendering and disperse of material are activated so toke 13 min!

          Majid,

          The renderings are wonderful!
          Will you please share settings, render engine info and approximate time of rendering.

          I ask because, I am rarely given time to produce renderings of such high quality, so I'd like to know how much time I should allot for something of this caliber, and if it even possible for my production work.

          On my machine that is rather old laptop it takes almost 1 min (1min16 sec ,denoise activated) to have such a render using Thea plugin (V.2). It has also an option to save the skp file with all external references that I am sharing now. So please feel free to have your hands over the file and render it.

            Beauty as always. It is not possible the other way for an artist. πŸ˜„ This is the the situation where denoising shine - smooth surfaces.

                    I am wondering why only two times my attached file is downloaded. I would be glad to see the others tests results and feedback.

                          I am wondering not, as it is generated automatically by the Thea plugin. I personally work with SU2017 Make version.

                            Nice renders and incredible attitude. I remember KT's fast stary for architects.

                            You can overwrite the file inside the zip, for a v8 version. That should cover everyone.

                              It can be saved as earlier versions, if Majid is happy I can post it.

                                      Majid has produced a great product, great things can come from those great models. That is one fine render too.

                                      My two pence worth, Twilight render.


                                      Quick.

                                        I downloaded the file and have tried rendering in Thea4SU 1.5 and regardless of how I try and light the scene, I only get a black imgae.

                                        Is it possible to render in 1.5 or what am I doing wrong?

                                            I needed to tweak materials for some reason. I did not have a good diamond material so I used clear glass. The rings are sitting on a rough rubber matt. The silver material was switched with Chromium. I could not get the silver to work.

                                            This is done in Thea4SU 1.5 AO

                                            Thanks for the Model Majid! and the inspiration 😎
