      thanks for sharing...
      I assume you are posting because you want suggestions for future improvement?
      If so... did you notice that your lights shine up on themselves in the entry rendering?

        Hi Fletch, I always welcome advice & or constructive critisism.

        The way I interprate the lights is that they are casting light
        out to the sides. I am sitting in my living room right now and
        the ceiling light is on and casts light out to the sides as well
        as down.

        Do think they should cast more down than out? That probably is true
        in that they are recessed fixtures.

        The primary purpose of this post as well as the other posts in my home
        series was not to show off my skills, but just to show an example of how
        our company uses sketch up in the real world and hoping others would
        post some of their own real world projects.

        Anyway, thanks for the suggestion and I would appreciate it if you would
        expand a little on what you think the light should do.

        Thanks

        Paul

          Here is one of many projects in SketchUp but this being the most recent. The model and rendering was done in one afternoon to meet a deadline by the client which is why some of the lighting isn't that great. The final product between the two came out pretty close.

            Jhuman,

            Nice job for such a limited time table!
            The beauty of sketch up is the ability to relatively quickly put your client in the space. Even if
            there is not time or money for a full blown presentation it can still make a powerful impression on
            clients.
            Please tell me that the second & third images are as builts not renders.
            Nice design! Thanks for sharing some of your work.

            What rendering program are you using?

              JHuman. That is an excellent representation of the final job. I have used the split level island design myself. Only crit on the render is the direction of the woodgrain in the table top. Looks fantastic otherwise. πŸ‘

                I used VRay for the rendering, thats the only rendering software I know anymore since I dont do as much rendering anymore. I have a bunch of other images I will hunt down and post.

                  Great renders mate, the second and third are excellent, the first one has a little texture tiling on the counter top however.

                    I actually thought the second & third images were photos of the finished product.

                    The manufacturers tag on one of the chairs in the third image is a level of
                    detail I would have not thought of going to.

                    These are renders...? Wow!

                        No, images 2 and 3 are photos of the completed project. I really wish I could have rendered the images that well. Someone like Solo or Nomer probably could get that good of an image but not I. thanks for the comments.

                          Did you know that camera flash is possible with Thea render?

                          I've seen so many awesome renders lately that I can no longer tell real from render. 😳

                            I finally got a chance to do an interior!
                            This client provided me with an opportunity to create an interior scene of their kitchen.

                            I have played around a little with interiors in the past, but this is my first real
                            full fledged effort at creating a lifelike interior.
