Hi, I hope you can help. Up until now I have been rendering my models and visuals in sketchup then taking them into photoshop to add shadows and highlights etc. I don’t own any rendering software and work on a Mac laptop.
I would like to learn how to render with realistic finish similar to the photos I have attached above (I hope this is allowed as I don’t know who’s work it is to credit them).
Do you think it is possible to achieve this look with sketchup and photoshop and if so where could I find a tutorial or learning place to get me started.
Many thanks in advance
These images look like they came from a rendering extension such as V-Ray, Lumion or Enscape (just to name a few of many). It’s going to be tough to achieve this level of detail and realism with only SketchUp and Photoshop. The reflections in the glass for example are easy to do in rendering software and difficult if not impossible to get correct in Photoshop alone.
I’d suggest posting some of your current SU to Photoshop views and ask specific questions and we’ll all do out best to help where we can.
