        Not exactly 'render this' but 'reshape and render'.
        Exported from SU to blender and 3d coat. Rendered in 3d Coat, no PP. Some fun. Now I can bake it and import it in SU. Its a 'retopoed' 20k faces model now with nice UVs. The original was 25k.

                      yes! the only thing i did in Photoshop was the smoke, everything else is rendered in SketchUp πŸ˜„
                      i did a cut out of a flame picture, did an alpha map and added emmisive layer.

                        There is some great design in lot of consumer objects, its a matter of scale sometimes. Thats why I distorted this. Good modeling (like sketchnl's) is what remains in the end, even after any kind of transformation. Modeling makes me happy, not rendering.

                          thanks for your compliment. with a good model, is rendering easier. it takes more time in the beginning but less at the end.

                            Well sketchnl, my point is that precise lines is what makes a scene to vibrate. Rendering is an effect, always welcome. Its like nice colours or dramatic shadows in painting. But what can I say in front of a Alberto Giacometti's or Picasso's painting or sculpture... Only some grey tones but extremely precise shapes! IMO of course.

                              Whow, exactly. πŸ˜‰ Yes it is true, it is all about the precision of the models. Only it's asking a lot of your computer. and you need a lot of patience.
