      hey everyone, havnt posted in a while, but ive been really happy with some of my stuff lately wanted to share (its also better to share renders with people who understand what goes into rendering rather than sometimes unappreciative clients). All built in Sketchup and all (but one) rendered in max/vray.

      This is my freshest one, and probably my favourite (probably due to its freshness) i can still see things i could add to it but i dont see myself coming back to it.

      Raw render:

      http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u143/FreeAgent84/01NEWRAW.jpg

      these next few are from a set of 6 of which im posting 3 (cos the others were crap) also lots that could still be added especially the aerial which could have more lights and people coming in from the sides.
      this one was very complicated as i was working with engineers and they wanted to use the model for structural assessment and what not, so lots and back and forth, also i must add this was a tag team with 3d max in building that canopy first general form in max then grid spacing and placement in sketchup the back to max for shelling, however the rest was built in sketchup so it still qualifies to be posted here.

      This one is from a set of 3 which i spent 2 sleepless days on and the client said nothing about (referring to the unappreciative clients statement above). scroll right >>>

      Added Aerial View:

      this one is kind of old and a bit out of place but i saw it on my flash card while looking for images to post so i thought i'd post it anyway

              That rustic bush lodge with the African sky is bloody phenomenal, looks like a well taken photo.

                          Free Agent, thanks for sharing your work. Those images are impresive.
                          Is sad that the clients don't apreciate your efforts.

                          I don't usually like crowded renders, but the people in yours look nicely blended and not out of place.

                                    Awesome work as always, Free Agent. I'd go as far as to say that this is probably the best topic I've seen in this gallery to date. I'm quite surprised at how much PS work you end up putting into your work.

                                    The only crit I have is that the on first shot of under the organic canopy, the shadow's look like they have gone wrong and the darker paving material looks oddly jointed: I'm guessing but it look as though this happened when you were editing slabs in PS. and the shadow's moved? Might have been easier to render out the shadows as a separate channel and just overlay at the end.

                                    Top work though.

                                    PS Are you not using VfSU any longer?

                                      hi DzineTech, thank you for the comment, those are actually 5 stairs going down slightly to a sunken undercover canopy area, so the shadows of the canopy are hitting different levels of stairs becoming disjointed.

                                      no more VRfSU, the camera control alone in max far outweighs the ease of having Vray inside Sketchup. Safe frame and Vertical correction namely but there are obviosly many others.

                                        Those are amazing ! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                                        You just proved that we need another gallery (sort of a 'best of'-gallery where only the best works can be shown => I almost missed yours.)

                                        It 's that sort of works that keeps my spirits high and makes me want to try even harder ...

                                        Keep posting ! (Even your 'crap' will probably be better than everything I will come up with ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

                                        Thanks for sharing ...

                                          Ah I see what you mean. I stand corrected!

                                          I know what you mean re Max and Vray. It's a far superior combination especially guess shift plus the additional Vray features missing in VFSU like Vrayoverridemtl. The shell structure must've been a pain to get right but you've done a cracking job as it all looks excellent.
