SketchUp to render to AI

[jscottsmith]

Fun experiments around the office. Always looking for new toys and processes.

I'd say that turned out well. Worth the points?

[jscottsmith]

@Mike-Amos Thanks Mike! I don't follow the question about points.

@jscottsmith

Sorry, a question around the time and input involved for the result. Shortened to 'worth the points it takes to make'.

It did a good job. Does it fit into the spec of the real world in terms of real world application?

Or is it just a fun side gig?

Midjourney has some new stuff that allows you to edit the generated image using infill to really nail the prompt. Even accepting real world images as a source.

@Mike-Amos
Ah, gotcha. The time required for the AI portion is negligible.

@Rich-O-Brien
This was a real job. And we modeled terrain and placed veg to approximate the real world conditions. The AI just helped give it that extra realism that would take a very long time to get in 3D native.

Here's a quick overview:

@jscottsmith What AI enhancer are you using?

[jscottsmith]

@Gus-R Depends on the mood. If I think this one used Magnific.

@jscottsmith Very informative.
Do you use Blender3D for modeling?

Looks like Lumion. Stop using AI...it spoils the fun
