Garden buildings
-
Hi hope this is the right forum.
I design garden buildings for a living and I'm hoping to improve the quality of render I produce. As I have seen some amazing images on this forum which put mine to shame.
If you have any nice images along the lines of this beauty http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=33659&p=298688#p298688 could you perhaps post them up or link me to them as I'm trying to get a better understanding of how these quality images are constructed.
If you check my history/profile I have some images of my work from a couple of months ago.
Thanks and I'll pop back later.

Do mean like outdoor sheds and workshops? Or very small guest houses? Greenhouses? Home office retreats? Pool house?
Those kind of garden buildings?
-
Hi all of those sound good. Just any images like those you have listed, as I want to see how other SketchUp users are structuring there work/images.
Although if your asking what I design - Garden offices, studios, annexes, lodges.

Excellent.
There have been many of those posted here. In fact, I'm surprised that there aren't any currently shown.
Be patient and I'm sure you will see a lot more. Hopefully, some will post their older ones here.
In the meantime, why don't you post one of yours?

Hi ecofeco, here is my most recent image. Please excuse the lack of sky as, I'm trying a new method using photoshop.
Maybe it's because it is my work and I see it everyday, but I just think my drawings are a bit messy and boring. Lack a certain something.

Your model looks fine, but you might try to experiment with the lighting and composition. Like more light on the face of your model and move the camera in closer.
Play with SketchUp's Fog and Shadows. That's what I do.

Hi tails.
I realy like your building. I can easily imagine it in real garden. Good work
About you render. What realy seem strange to me is amount of light inside
building. Its just too much for a day. I know you used some artificial lights there but still. Another thing is grass texture. This always been problem
for me and for many others. Try some other textures and some postprocessing as well.May I ask you if its your design of builiding ? Im landscape architect and its realy refreshing

Hi yes the buildings are my work, we also do another range with pitched roofs, o even vertically clad cedar. Many of the choices are the customers own.
I'm unsure what to do post processing as I never get to a high level with adobe. I bump map the grass in podium.
