i've been thinking the same way too.
almost difficult to see G SU survived without the efforts of those men
not to mention mentors like Jean, Gaieus, Alan and helpful others in this community forum.

I didn't know that there's such thread in this forum before

also thanks to massimo, notareal, and others for those links to note.

Ah. Didn't realize that one was a render. Thanks.

that sounds like i failed to make a difference on the look before and after the render

Really nice work

I have a question - why is it that you can see thru the rotan in both photos, but in the first one it casts a solid shadow, but in the second one the spaces between the rotan cast no shadow?

hi Steve,
the second one have a texture of a woven rotan. made into Kerkythea material with clip map.

nice tea set
btw, what render app do you use?

Thank you, Walt.

I normally make a low resolution proxy texture and in my render app i exchange it for the higher resolution one.

Thank you for the tips, Solo. Thank you very much

That's interesting.
How to lower the model size with texture?
Are you saying that we should use downgraded image file to use in SketchUp? That makes sense
I'll change the resolution for use next time.

Thank you Solo

No.

The texture is self made in Kerkythea. But the textured model size is about 1.38 MB.
I thought that would be something unacceptable to post in the forum.
If not, I'll attach the textured model too if you'd like to.

Ah yes, sorry. Forgot to include the model too.
Here it is

Trying to practise SketchUp with traditional chair made of rotan.

Monsieur,
I think you should post more often and provide tutorials for newbies like me.

Yogie,

Kalau itu es batu, berarti setting rendernya bagus di save aja nanti buat bikin render cincau

I cannot see much understandable text in metric version.
So cannot try to edit it. It shows sanskrit language perhaps.

Nice
Where can we found those kind of 2D people? Any musician or acoustic player?

What about these grass textures?

I might be wrong, but I think those aren't ice cubes in the glass. He made those just as he probably want them to be.
Perhaps those are these things in local beverage cincau hitam

I think I just found someone who doesn't really need a rendering application
Can I sell those models, Steve? I need to upgrade my PC. Please let me know where and how to sell them too

I have run out of adjectives for this model. So I created a new one -
