Rolleiflex Automat

i was going to compose a scene as well, but then i saw Solo's render
and i just gave up... lol...why bother? he won!
anyway, here it is where i quit and just hit "render"
Thea4Sketchup BSD, 30 minutes (old Core2Duo...)
-
BTW, im still learning how to work with Thea...
how do i get a white background in Thea4Sketchup? is it only possible in studio version?
-
I didn't want to have to go after Pete!
I was going to put it in a scene, but laziness very quickly took over.. great model, wish I had the patience.
SketchUp 4 Thea... TR2
-
Pete's render is pretty damn intimidating, so rather than realism I went for artistic symbolism.
The camera as a hard object seeing through the brittle nature of the world around it and capturing the softness within.

Great renders guys !
Keyshot (about and hour and a half with medium presets on quad core) .

Use an IBL (image in environmental slot), which will disable sky, yet keep sun.

This was done in SU using Thea4SU plugin.
6 minutes (Thea 1.3 still to be implemented into plugin)

thanks for the answer
but if you dont mind my off-topic questioning, i would like to know your opinion
i was thinking about making a switch from Artlantis (hated ATL 5) to either VRay 2.0 or Thea... and i just love Thea, except for 1 thing VRay still wins: speed (although if i switch off Final Gathering i get the same speed with Thea BSD...)
my question: is 1.3 version of Thea (the one you are testing) more geared towards GPU renderig and heavy requirements?
cause i still work with an old 2 core machine with an ATI GPU..........
sorry again for the off-topic

I'll be honest, that setup will not work great with many Rendering software, especially not Thea.
The ATI GPU is an instant fail as Thea is Cuda based so only Nvidia, the two core (not even sure if it is 4 threads) is another weak point as the new Thea will be able to use all cores/threads and all GPU cards at same time giving you incredible speeds. (Faster than any render engine I know)
If you are ready I can guide you to a better machine that will give you serious speed and performance enhancements at a decent price (based on USA pricing)
-
thanks for the answer
im gonna upgrade to a new machine, of course, but its not happening now, i'll have to wait until the begining of 2014
but i need a rendering software to work with, in the meantime
so, from what i understood, Thea 1.3 is heavy on GPU, right? maybe work with VRay for now, and in 3/4 months, with a powerfull new machine, switch to Theaok, sorry all for the off-topic
expecting to see more great renderings in this thread -

No, The new thea will still have the CPU based engines like BSD, TR1 and TR2, the new Presto which right now is only GPU will now have an only CPU option added as well as a GPU + CPU option, so in essence Thea is expanding the render options.
From a testers point of view I can honestly say the new Presto gives TR1 results (unbiased) in mere minutes using the new GPU + CPU option. I do not like comparing render engines but will say that Vray has nothing on the new Presto engine as far as speed goes.
-
ohhhh, i see
now that you put it that way, i guess it would be better for me to start right now with Thea (even if i have to put up with 30 minute to 3 hour rendering times, with my old 4 thread pc...), and in a couple of months upgrade to a new machine with Nvidia GPU...
thanks for the help,
you are a great artist, but also very helpful to new guys like me

Cracking model Bryan, (deserves to be in the Most impressive SketchUp modelling IMHO)
Some great renders above, Pete that last one is
John
-
Bryan, blown away by the detail!
Solo, dat render... wow! -
That's my model?Hat's off to you guys.
Thanks again to everyone. Incredible renders. Wow. Just wow.
-
i think that when a model is exceptional as yours is, obtaining good rendering results is much easier
even for beginners like me...here's another one, sorry for the "alternative texturing" hahahaha, i just couldnt resist
think iphone gold...
twilight biased medium+
-
Gold! I love it. I would have never thought of that.
There was in fact, a special edition Rolleiflex that used gold trim and red leather. I don't remember the model as I was focusing on the standard model, but I did see 2 pictures while searching.
Nice render xonpt.
-
Here's a quick one. It's a memory box.
-
Wow! Good one Box.
I'm still struggling to get a first one right.
-
Super modelling Bryan thanks for the share, i'll try to make a render do it justice !
