The Secret Garden - Challenge 2016 Final_Lam Nguyen - Project

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

SketchUp 2025–2026 has added native PBR materials, AI image generation, and real-time rendering plugins like Lumion View, letting archviz artists produce photorealistic images without leaving the viewport. This collapses the traditional design-to-render pipeline.

The Secret Garden - Challenge 2016 Final_Lam Nguyen

This is the Final Render: 177294 Being a part of this competition was really fun and challenging! I learned a lot from doing this. The story I had in mind when creating this image was have a focus on the Maiden statue. The statue represents a figure who nurtures life in the garden. But as time passes, the inhabitants here disappeared. Leaving the maiden statue alone and the garden growing out of control. Leaving us questioning, what happened to the inhabitants here? And why is the statue still active? Software's used: - 3DS Max 2016 - Vray 3.3 - Daz 3d - Marvelous Designer - Photoshop CS6 Good luck to all. :D Special thanks to: 3DArchive - for providing free 3d models Evermotion - for hosting the awesome competition.
