OVERLAY STYLE - Repost from old SU forum
i called this OVERLAY STYLE because of main trick in it...
i work with su for a long time doing different types of renderings
always trying to do a bit "fat colored", "lightburned"
(if you understand) picture
this tech slove a problem of "flat colors"so, first tech is the easy variation or OVERLAY STYLE
for casual object......for example this corolla!!!
all sample files are posted below
step 1
export two images from su:
first: colored with textures and shadows but without edges, profiles and so on
(set the transparency quality in display settings to the "nicer" level
for better image)(toyota_corolla_01.jpg)
second: colored with textures, shadows and edges + x-ray mode turned on
[the picture embedded here was on the old SketchUp Forums and is not available any more]
step 2
start photoshop, open a first image (toyota_corolla_01.jpg)
convert background to layer and duplicate itblur duplicated layer with gaussian blur (radius: about 1 pixel)
than apply motion blur to the same layer (0 degrees, distance: about 150 pixels)
set the blending mode of this layer to OVERLAY......this is the main trick of technology
...color burning + fractal shadowsthen open second image (toyota_corolla_02.jpg)
and paste it as a layer over the other two layers setting blending
mode to OVERLAY......more color + transparency effect
flattern layers...
...the result is something like(exit_01.jpg)
you may develop this tech in all other ways
variations are neverending...respect to whole su community
