      I've tried doing this stuff both ways to be honest mate, in the render set-up and as a post-pro thing. Personally I find doing it post- in Photoshop is, for me, much faster, and allows a lot more flexibility to try out different options. Best of all, it allows for those 'happy accidents' when you layer stuff up and suddenly find an effect that just 'works'. That said, this is also partly a reflection of my lack of real in-depth rendering expertise, and I'm always in awe of those people like Solo who seem to get amazing results straight out of the render engine, with minimal post-work.

      @andyc said: Thanks for the heads-up Richard, much appreciated. Just taken a quick look, and I think that may be just what I need. Very grateful mate, thank you. A. Seriously mate, have a play, I think you'll be amazed at the ease of setting up a site. I heard about it, then suggested to a client who was just about to get a site rebuilt that I'd have a crack. now I've built about a dozen and just quoted on a few more just from word of mouth. And I knew nothing about websites 2 years ago!

      @rich o brien said: It'd be nice to see SU ouput too. Nice result Hi Rich, SU output attached. The ground plane was assigned a 'shadow-catcher' material in Thea, and rendered using the sun as a lightsource and the background image for global illumination.

      Thanks Ken. I used a number of point-lights in Thea, with varying colours, to light the ceiling. Using coloured lights to add different tones helps to take away from the clinical feel of the renders... I think..

      Thank you Yes 365 is a big number. If she manages to get this funded though it should be amazing: seeing the progression of a whole year, the cycle of the seasons, through the paintings. Unearthed: yes, as if painting in oils wasn't challenging enough, the issues of working outdoors add a whole new set of complications. Louise has found ways to deal with this, although on occassion she does return home with almost as much paint on her as on the canvas! Thanks for the kind words everyone. It means a lot. A.

      Thanks Richard, I really appreciate that. Over the coming weeks I will be swapping the images for higher- res versions. To be very honest, I kept the res low for now because all these images still need some details touching-up. Once these are sorted I'll upload them, and hopefully you'll feel immersed A.

      Your ART is atmospheric and emotive. Worthy of consideration with or without sketchup content, thanks for sharing.

      There is a saying "be the change you want to see". If we all took the approach of not working for corporations with which we have moral issue, and the greater community took this same attitude toward patronage - we would see change overnight!

      Thanks for the info - thats a lot of help. I do so many hacky little tricks with SU that I've reached a point where I just want solid stuff that works, rather than spending time trying to figure out whats going wrong and where (entirely my fault most of the time) Ash
