SketchUp's Real-Time Rendering Moment: Lumion View, AI Render, and the End of the Export Workflow

Summer Garden

This project is about a cafe in Melborne, Australia. Incidentally, i saw the cafe on the internet and liked it very much. So i want to turn it into my composition! In the beginning, i searched a lot of photo references related to the project. Then i started model it. I want the cafe garden to be actual as possible so i used many model type of trees. After that i tried to test a lot of times and finally, i choosed light afternoon. The Sunshine went through branch of trees and foliage shadowed on the garden. My Sofwares : 3ds Max 2014, Vray 3.0, Ony Tree, Photoshop,... Here's some photo references.
