convincing? yeah or neah?

hey ssim -

i think you can export to most any rendering application from su. i mostly use su and ps - so i couldn't really answer any specifics on render times or which is better - but i'm sure some one here can.

here is a link to the su plugins for direct exports to render apps - maybe that might help you: http://www.sketchup.com/?sid=37

also this thread might be of interest to you: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=82&t=4199

good luck,

jb

commissioned cabin rendering in colorado

warmest regards

jb

gotcha. i see what your referring to - now that you mention it they do seem kind of wimpy. they are drawn as built though, 2x6x16". oh well, on the actual house they turned out much better.

jb

roger that, ron. but i'm trying to figure out where/which drawing needs attention.

jb

eric, don't follow you on the overhangs - come again?

thanks, todamgood4U.

this one was in the colorado high desert region in an area called Pinyon Mesa.

thanks tom. i'd like to see more of your work.

here are some more homes i designed and built while in colorado. most of them took 9 or so months to build. model was done in sketchup and then tweeked in ps.

jb

sure was, Alan. i had a chance to do some mountain biking and hiking around the area on weekends with my dog - canoek. i found a great spot to just sit and ponder. it was at the head of a canyon. there i could sit, safely dangle my feet over a 400' cliff and marvel at sheer canyon walls before me. i was completely taken in by the breath-taken-beauty carved by wind and rain in these massive walls of stone. it put things into perspective.

regards,
jb

sorry. have been out of town.

thanks krisidious - you are too kind.

i checked your website and you and your mom's stuff is where it is at - very cool! i like it a lot - universal studios meets residential - that would be awesome to be apart of that type of construction.

jb

thanks, Coen! - checked your website - like your stuff.

yes, todamgood4U, this is a plug-in filter for ps (can't remember where i got it or which one, though). i was messing around with different filters and layers back in the day before the dennis technique hit the forum. had some luck with watercolor effects too that aren't as involved as dennis'. really like your charity playhouse - good stuff.

jb

hello.

wanted to share this that i designed and built for a client in colorado. it sat on a beautiful bluff overlooking the majestic sandstone cliffs of the colorado national monument.

like the new forum! thank-you Coen!!
