      Yup, I checked again and indeed the second and third images are of the same project. I updated my post.

      Nice to know you'll be visiting here! 😛 Although I live in Guayaquil, I'd recommend skipping it (too hot and almost no nature to see) and going straight to the highlands, which are beautiful. Check the group of volcanic lakes surrounding Otavalo, north of Quito. Also, near Baños in Tungurahua you can do rafting and bike through the rain forest.

      Don't forget to take the necessary precautions:

        thanks for the tips, ecuadorian!

        regarding the modelling above, halil dolan from paravant architects wrote me back already and said that the renderings are done in rhinozeros with aditional editing done afterwards.

        hopefully some people find this useful!

          Cool, three of my friends from college use Rhinoceros. They have done awesome (and I mean, awesome) things with it. 👍

                FYI

                Adamo Gumowski from Stuttio Workshop (responsible for the first image I posted) replied, saying that the models were created with Sketchup and Rhino, and then rendered with VRAY products from ASGVIS.

                Good to know!

                  oh, one other question - is there a good resource for getting background images for sketchup rendering? (ie skies/fields, stuff like that?)

                    I suggest that you take a look at the Render application Home pages...

                      Also, have a look at this link collection of texture resources. Some have background images, too.

                        Dave, there are lots of free images/backgrounds/textures in http://www.cgtextures.com.
