Good work Chris. You've undoubtedly got talent and your blog has some fantastic stuff. Really like the composition and the frame proportions, and the overall shading is great. But in terms of NPR, you need to push it a little further. Decide what type of trad media you want to emulate and head that way with a bit more conviction.

Another great piece Allan. Been a fan of your work a long time. The colour tinting really finishes it off.

Tim: This is

Harnstein: I use Corel painter because the choice of brush heads is perfect for me and it

Allan. More nice work. I wonder if you can develop a technique for getting glass reflection in there ??

Allan. You really make this workflow your own. I think its fantastic. Like the different tints across the image. Is that all fotosketcher or a bit of photoshop.

Great work Chris. Especially like your use of the black line layer. Line and render is a classic look from traditional methods.

Thanks Mike. You should post some of your work. As SketchUp goes you do some epic stuff and certainly make it work to its best for Architecture.

Cheers cadmunkey (fellow yorkshireman) and Richard. Are there any topics on terrain modelling you can point me too ?

If I get you right PaOlo you want to know how to create a texture for sketchup like the example. In Photoshop or similar create your image on a new layer and make a transparent background. Then save as a png file (this will preserve the transparancy). Import that into Sketchup and there you have it.
