FotoSketcher is pretty cool
-
Not as powerful, but pretty fun
-
Yes, Fotosketcher is superb! like davidh in his watercolour thread did, I get more realistic DWC results when rendering twice with FC.
HFM: although this is about Fotosketcher, this link is great, thanks!
-
This one was my first attempt with FotoSketcher. I thought it was worth testing how not to use Photoshop
just Twilight output to FC to SU here...
-
oh so you saved the watercolour then applied the filters again.....nice!
that impressionist is good too, thanks for sharing the link HFM
-
no SketchUp here, just playing with FotoSketcher (and a bit of Photoshop) to modify this image taken by a friend...
FotoSketcher is cool!!!
-
Nice one Marek! What exactly were the modifications in Photoshop?
-
Some local editing ( erasing to white space, some finger painting, ...) were done in Photoshop, but nothing extensive, really quick 5 min photoshop session
-
Pretty cool app, NPR renders still rule.

Hey Oli
I notice your running Leopard, but can't find a .dmg version just .exe, are you running Windows on your mac, or am I missing the mac version?
This looks like great software. Thanks for the post. -
wow, solo you have changed your profile pic!!
dale, i am running windows 7 via vmware fusion. you can use bootcamp too...but with vmware you can instantly switch between windows and mac, its sooooo easy. There comes a time when you just need windows! cant be exclusively mac forever!
just like opening another application:
-
quick try with a section.
3 jpg exports - hidden line, profiles turned off, 'normal' sketchup view.fotosketch each of them.
assemble in photoshop by layering.would work better as an exterior, with some shadows, trees, landscaping... but a cool process.

Oli
Yeah I have to agree. I'm looking at a new macbook pro, and pretty much convinced to add fusion. Anyone I know who uses it loves it. Glad you agree, it makes the decision easier. -
Sorry to be a fanboy but Fotosketcher is really cool in my opinion. What can I say, I suck at rendering! If you are on Facebook I have an example http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=1836523&id=665888847&fbid=80713438847

@ Oli,
Thanks for starting this thread! I really prefer your Fotosketcher image to your rendering in the first post...nice work.
Thanks to this forum and Boofredlay, I discovered Fotosketcher a few days ago. 4 of my friends and colleagues are now using it...it is indeed a fun, easy to use piece of software and you can beat the price.Here's some photos that I took that were pretty much throwaways until I ran them through the FS watercolor filters.

quick one
Sepo,
I really like this image! Care to post the original and your settings in FS?

Not sure if this works or not...took a photo of the fields, sky and tree line behind my house...ran it through FS. The used it as a billboard backdrop behind a SU model.
-
I've been playing around with it. Very Fun!
-
Thanks Marek, finger painting is what I suspected. A watercolor painting has sharp and and blurred details at the same time, this is what makes your picture look so realistic.
I tried to achieve this with the color blending of the bilateral filter in FS. This one is first watercolor and then median + bilateral. Warehouse model, just a few passes in Twilight.

This is base photo shot with Iphone. Basic pp contrast, vignette and frame.
-
some great images here
need to have another play.
