              Nice work mate, Scares the hell out of me though. All those years of learning how to render down the drain. Makes me a bit sad

                I have to agree, some folk have great results but frankly it is a whole 'nuther story and tbh, not one I want a part in and the loss of skill leading to another lost skillset is quite unsettling. I suppose that is the definition of progress. As long as we do not evolve into cabbage patch folk from the outer limits. Shades of this? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0244290/

                    When I am working, i need a result. Sometimes rendering gives me a better result, sometimes AI and in many cases the combination of both.
                    In the end the quality of my work is much better than last year. Time changes and we have to go with it. I love the new possibilities and I like to push them to the limit.

                      Yes, times are changing, and I have little time for the changes. However you need to pick your fights, and not learning it as a protest would be a mistake. The AI changes to workflow are absolutely inevitable undeniably and this is just the beginning. When reliable Quantum computers mature it will be another leap if it does not kill us first

                        Today I've made a first try of the new sketchup diffusion.

                        at first I've uploaded an image of a bus Mercedes ecitaro and let the AI create the model, then I rendered it.

                        su view of the created model:

                        nice try but I think there has to be more developpment...diffusion.jpg

                        AI render of that scene:

                          Nightmarish. I wonder if it needs more SketchUp lines and profiles?

                              I do not understand how to get the best out of the now AI render program and YOU do. Nicely done Sir.

                                  Do you order 3D prints or print yourself?

                                    a friend of mine (working at the tramwaycompany) is doing the prints for me.
