Sketchup image with color or sometimes I render it with GI then fotosketcher, no edges to photoshop, 100%
line work from su overlay it with color image 30%
grey layer in ps with texturizer filter, overlay it. 100%
another layer, run it with brushes and eraser, 5% opacity, overlay it 50%
My workflow is I render the sketchup model with Global Illumination and then run it in fotosketcher then overlay the image in Photoshop.
It's similar to davidh workflow but I've added some of my style to it to make it more interesting and unique. Actually for every image there is a different set of parameters and blending modes in Photoshop.
I would like to thank davidh for this style... π
Thanks again Pg09, these style is quite new and refreshing because I got tired of the plain SketchUp output so I tried another way through Piranesi for some new styles....
The institute I think is not looking for a practical solution at the moment, what they are looking for are more of a aesthetic looking presentation rather than the design. I have thought of that at the beginning of my design but as a trained Architect I did what I am trained to do. That is to design a more practical and easy to build spaces...π
The reason for this say's the Institute is to encourage more people to participate and get involved in their vision and I think also is to make them donate money to generate funds...
steelers05,
I'm glad that you like the sketchy version, I've used Piranesi for that to add a more artistic and natural feel to the image...
