Hi Fred,

Very beautiful images! The soft light, metal reflections, the leather and wooden floor...wow!! Very nice.

Hi guys,

Busy with a Victorian property in England. Here are some renders that I did with Vray. I also attached a few exterior blank images of the villa model.

Have a look!

oh nice and the furniture is modeled by you only? i really liked the wooden woven chair, the weaves ..they are modeled or transparent texture?

I got the chair from 'Archive 3D' website. You can download there models and import them in SketchUp. I added the textures myself afterwards.
This website is also very good for plant / tree files: http://plants.swtexture.com/

awesssommmm!!! what is the source of plants that you're using?

Hey John,

I get the most of the plant images from the CG Texture website. They have a bunch of nice .png files. I use them as an overlay in PS to add extra vegetation.

Thanx for the CC's guys!!

Here are a few more exterior shots. The client wanted to explore a free-form pool and different roof style / color. There are many small details changed and added as well (round columns, moldings, tile choices etc).

Have a look!

Hi,

Just finished another tropical villa concept design + renders. It is a 4 bedroom, 2 story sea view villa on top of a hill. Have a look and let me know what you guys think ok. Thanx!

Wow...nice images! Great mood and setting. I was thinking:

• the first image could possibly need a lamp (light) in the corridor between the lounge and dining? It's maybe a bit of a dark spot for now?
• 2nd image: the wine glasses (the actual glass) is a bit on the dark side? And what about adding a little snack? Some wasabi peanuts on a little decorated dish??

Hi everyone,

I'm uploading a few renders I just did for a new 'tempel project' I am working on.
After the render was done I did some work in PhotoShop to give it a matching mood & character.
Render engine I used was IDX Renditioner.

Additionally I have added some SU exports of the model.

How I created these images:
In PhotoShop I changed the IDX renders background color (lighter) and changed some other settings to my likings (mainly brightened it up a bit and took some 'yellow' out).
Then opened the SketchUp 2D export (with texture & shadows) in PS as a 2nd layer and changed the opacity setting to around 35%. These two layers merged as one and made a 2nd copy of it and changed this one to black&white with 80% opacity and added some texture to it (filter -> texture). Now I took the erase tool at 15% and slowly erased the black&white layer to reveal the 'color layer' bit by bit. Finally I brightened up the corners by adding some 'corner vignetting' (filter->distort->lens correction->vignetting).

Regards,
Jeri

Thanx for your comment. I used IDX Renditioner for this render which not really creates photo realistic renders. I agree on the 3D cartoon part hehe...I added some colored lights to create a 'different' effect (purple reflections in this case).

Added some steam in Photoshop for some realism, What you think?

...Stuck in the rain...modeled my coffee machine and did this render with IDX Renditioner. Coffee time!!!

The second last is my favorite!!! Just stunning! One small thing though, the boots on the left are not so detailed / realistic. This is a bit detracting. My suggestion: take the boots out or replace them with better ones.

Good luck!

Great to hear guys! I really tried not to make a 'show room' type of space....and it came across I ques. I hope people 'feel at home' looking at the images and can imagine themselves watching tv or making breakfast in the kitchen.

Thanx Oliver! I checked out some of your work as well (tower)...nice mix with the line drawing and render together. Very technical & clean result.

Hi Fymoro,

Thanx for your comment. On the 'real villa location' this will be the early morning sun casting the low shadows in this main living lounge. I added the 'glow' because sun rise and sun set are always special lighting conditions in my opinion....nice and soft!

Jeri

hehehe.....yeh it is hot in sunny Thailand where this villa will be constructed. In the original image you can see the 'normal' ceiling fan. I just wanted to try this effect in PhotoShop. It is good to hear that it is too distracting though. I'll turn down the speed a bit then.

Thanx for your comment. I will try your suggestion on the chairs!

Hi everybody,

just want to share a view renders. SketchUp model rendered with IDX Renditioner. Post Processed with photoshop to create the 'setting' of the image. let me know what you think it ok.

Thanx!
Jeri
