can be uv-mapped properly in sketchup ...

Not exactly in SU, but:

http://www.uvmapper.com/

The Classic version is free, and it's pretty straightforward. I'm just trying it out for pillows and cushions in another application, but if I like it and bite for the Pro version I'll post the results and give some feedback.

http://www.robinwood.com/Catalog/Technical/Gen3DTuts/UVMapperTut/UVMapper1-1.html is a decent tutorial showing the simplicity of the interface.

Hope this helps,

Looks pretty awesome, and might this work with Vray for SU? Because if so then you just made my day .

Wasn't there also a new 3D plugin for Photoshop CS3 that lets you uv-'paint' straight on a 3D object?
Anyone experience with that ?

chris..
those are really really cool :thup: and all u need now is that BLACK PEARL at its tail! ..VfSU is surely a nice app.. too pricey i think...
anyways.. how did u do that second image.. i mean with the sun rising at the horizon.. is that an HDRI??? or was it just the physical sky with some option that i missed??

and one other thing.. have u tried out the physical camera yet? i seem to be having some problem with it when i try using the HDRI background!! it just wouldnt render the background!! any ideas???

Awsome! Those images look like photographs.

Thanks guys!

...I added a little more adventure to the scene :
The shark is 3D. Blood is Pshop. Waves are 'sandboxed'...I wish SU had more tools like the sandbox to make those waves look more real.

Hey kwistenbiebel,

Are those commercial models or available for free somewhere? Nice job BTW!

All of this straight out of SU, uff, it seems that I have been away for quite some time, and there is lot of catching up for me to do;-)
