Hi SketchUp Freak
In SketchUp 7 go to Window>Styles, you will find Style Builder Competition winners there. You can then select whichever one you want as they are listed there.
Hope this helps…
The ‘Skp lines’ layer is a common layer, which I just nammed like that for the needs of the demonstration…(and I don’t think googling it will help you..)
I use it to overlay the sketchup lines on the Vray renders (which of course doesn’t present lines). It’s just a simple export from sketchup, and an adjustment of the blending mode…
… In fact when I say ‘using the skp lines layer’ it just means that you use the magic wand on it to make quick and clean selections of precise area, define by the skp edges on your image.
In this article the difference (with or without the lines) is not that easy to get, because the pictures are quite small, but it works for real..!

Dear Ben, as I’ve declared in the 2nd paragraph , this must be done using those presets that use MLT, i.e in TWi…go to Tech settings–>3.progressive–>choose preset 03 or 04

You seriously enthused me with this project – and I think I know what I am talking about because designing nightlife was my profession for the past twenty years.

If you ever feel like calling me for support, i will be there hands on.

Hi Jacques,
Great work indeed, as Paul staed you gave me some ideas too,although you make it look too easy. I follow your work up to image 4/5, but canoont seem to cut or follow the rest of your steps, do you have an email I can send you my save file to look at?
Hi Mike
Yea sure, my email is cleghorny@gmail.com
Sorry for being so vague about this tut, it was a 8 month process and was a bit hard to capture this process over the time. First post was on SCF forum, posted 250 images of the model and basically step by step how it went onwards. The tut sort of ties into the areas where people probable had questions looking at the 250 renders. But thanks for the comments, and for those who never saw this before
Having recently started to use Vray for my rendering, I find your work a real inspiration, it is your finished image that keeps the flames burning, stunning.

Awesome and nice images. Nowadays, when discussing architecture, people consider the interior environment and the space’s general flow, as well as the exterior.
I would like to know what the advantages and disadvantages of Blender are, in relation to the game engine, remote control, operation systems, license, and so on.
Could anyone help me?

Thank you! It makes us happy that our work pleases them, seeing theirs I must say that they are fantastic, congratulations
We do not work with blender, do it with sketchup, for a question of simplicity and agility that has this program to the moment of the shaped one, the advantage of a program since like blender is that it is free and of opened code, and relies on many users that day after day they improve it
minnow on
December 26th, 2009 3:44 pm
Fantastic!
Would you like to send me the pencil stroke image since I can’t find the right one. And the images I find on the Internet are with low pixel.
Here’s my e-mail: minnow.chu@gmail.com
Or would you like to tell me where I can find the materials I want.
This is a great tutorial but the one thing that would help a lot of young designers is to incorporate more modeled entourage elements in the modeling phase. By finding a similar (not exact) lighting fixture, pots, planters, or cafe tables to place in the model, when you trace over it you have more reference to scale and size. You (Mr. Leggitt) have been doing this for so long it is second nature to you, and that is great, but so many renderings fail when it comes to the small details and by adding a bit more entourage you can get great results because the scale of elements is more accurate.
