Sample Models—Ready To Render.
If you're a SketchUp designer who is just learning to render or you're a seasoned artist who wants to try out more advanced techniques, download our ready-to-render sample models from the 3D Warehouse.
These SketchUp models are pre-set to produce a beautifully rendered image using the IRender nXt SketchUp rendering plugin. The Information Page in each will tell you the settings used to create the special effects in the model. Study the settings to learn the effect, then try some variations of your own.
Effects shown in our latest samples include:
- Water reflection on concrete surface
- Lighting channels for precision control of interior and exterior lights.
- Procedural Bump Maps for special effects such as water.

Pro Tips
Rendering Quality
A complex, high-resolution image takes time to render. Every 3D designer has to live with this in-escapable truth. But that doesn't mean you have to wait hours every time you want to render an image. Adapt your workflow to include faster, lower-resolution renders at intermediate stages of your design. This is a faster way to fine-tune your settings before you commit to larger, high-resolution render.
