          Energy Harvesters? Don't know...maybe...why not. πŸ˜‰ Thanks for your comment, Carsten.

          By the way, there is a tutorial on Sketchupartists.org about my texturing techniques. Here's the link http://www.sketchupartists.org/tutorials/sketchup-and-photoshop/art-of-sketchup-texture-workflow/, alghough you probably saw all of them already in my previous posts.

          Thanks for stopping by. Good day to you. β˜€

              Salut Pilou. No, they are not automatised. I have to render each pass individually and combine them in Photoshop. Thanks for asking. I hope this answers your question.

              Bonne journee! β˜€

                          Thanks, Oliver. Really appreciate your kind words. Honestly, I don't know when I will have time to finish it. I have lots of WIP that I need to work on, too. Since I have so many images to post, I have been trying not to post huge images so that my Photobucket account won't explode. πŸ˜‰

                          Thanks for you comment, Karl. I have another WIP of a hangar for my spaceships. I will post it soon.

                          Here some old Sketchup conceptual models for the game Defiance (http://www.defiance.com/en/) that I worked on in late 2009 to mid 2010.

                          I did not do the Photoshop background painting. It was done by another in-house concept artist.

                                Hi Jason,

                                Just ask me your question(s) and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I am always busy, and it might take days, but you will get a reply.

                                Take care.

                                  That sci-fi/steampunk submarine I did before needed a hangar.

                                  So here it is. A WIP, it has been over 4 months and I still have not had the time to go back to it, but I will finish it someday.

                                      Hi there,

                                      Some more conceptual models I did for Defiance (http://www.defiance.com/en/game/).

                                      Have a great day!

                                            Thanks, Oli. Actually you won't see these models. There were done back in 2009. They got some new designers and a new Art Director on board the next year, and they changed most of everything based on the new directions. I was back to working on Rift at that time.

                                            Here's another personal project in my series of Sci-Fi interiors.

                                            Skp + VrayFS + Photoshop

                                            Have a good day!
