      My first Christmas rendering in Thea.
      The lighting was tweaked a bit for the second image with some slight red and green reflections.
      I wrote a tutorial for the SketchUp Artists website that will appear soon. I will post up a link then.

          Gotta say I was a little suspicious about the title "Blue Balls" πŸ˜„
          Really nice render.
          Do I detect "Make Fur"?

          Just monkeying around....like Monsanto

                eric. . .very nicely done. I like the satin texture of the . . .ahem . .. Ornament.

                How did you do the tree? Was that 3D with Greebles or what? (Greebles. . did I say that right?) πŸ’š

                If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                          Mate I didn't know what I was going to see when opening this thread!

                          "Blue Balls" obviously doesn't have the same meaning as here is OZ!

                                    As soon as SketchUp Artists posts the tutorial I will paste a link. And thanks Rich.

                                      that is really terrific Eric. Because of renders like this and seeing what wizards like you were doing in Boulder with it (Pete et al) , I am getting Thea render for Christmas. 😍

                                      side note. . .isn't it interesting how many hits a thread will get if it has the word B*lls in it! πŸ’š

                                        Eric, so well done as always πŸ˜„ I really need to jump into Thea Render and start having some fun. At the moment I'm designing some Polynesian themed kiosks and the Fur plugin is doing such a nice job in creating thatch, I'm really loving that plugin πŸ˜„

                                          Eric, I had a break from project today, so rendered a quick one too, keeping on topic of balls.
