The Color of Shadows
-
Hi All- I downloaded the sketchup style DRAUGHTSMAN by Eramirez from the styles collection 2011 at the 'sketchup artists' website.

The shadows for his style shown on the webpage are a beige color but when I downloaded this style my shadows are the standard grey color.
Any idea how to change this?Thanks

Hi Steve,
You'll have to edit the image in an image editor after export. There's no way in SketchUp to change the color of the shadows so you have to do it in post processing. You can export the shadows independently of the lines and faces you you can edit the shadow color without changing the rest of the model.
Like so:
To this:
Plus this:
To get this:
Of course the sample accompanying the style might have be warmed up a bit as the whole image so the lines were colored a bit, too.
You can do a lot of other things to enhance the image such as soften the shadows and create the appearance of more than one light source.

maybe you can use that
But seem it's only outline shadows you can colorize the ground
