Made some corrections..although it appears the dock may be tad too small now. Added a volumetric spotlight to the lighthouse as well.

I like the idea of trying to do these as little speed painting exercises of 20-30 minutes. With a little more confidence in the brushwork I can see these being done in 10-15 minutes. - No intermediate rendering engine involved - just a Sketchup base image + Painter X

Well this is an interesting thread, keep it like this. A big 'bravo' to all of you.

This is a quick example using an NprTools feature called "Soft Edges". This saves an image of the edge lines, a separate image with no edge lines, applies a pattern mask to the edge lines and blends them back into the no-edge image with 50% transparency. (This can easily be done in PhotoShop - NprTools just does it all in a single step)

A chipboard watermark was applied as a SketchUp style before creating and blending the images.

Here is a blow up of the pattern mask and transparency effect at the top of the tower.
