🎯 Step 1: Set Up Your SketchUp for High-Poly Modeling
Open SketchUp Pro.
Go to Window Preferences OpenGL and enable Use Maximum Texture Size for better detail.
Install V-Ray Plugin (if not installed).
🌄 Step 2: Import High-Quality Reference Images
Use Match Photo Tool for accurate modeling.
Import high-resolution textures for better details.
✨ Step 3: Smooth Geometry for High-Poly Modeling
Use Sandbox Tool From Scratch for organic shapes.
Use Artisan Plugin or SubD Plugin for smooth curves and details.
Increase segments in Circles and Arcs to make them smoother.
🛋️ Step 4: High-Quality Material Application
Open V-Ray Asset Editor Materials.
Use PBR (Physically-Based Rendering) materials.
Add bump maps, displacement maps, and reflection maps for realistic textures.
💡 Step 5: V-Ray Lighting Setup
Add V-Ray Dome Light for environment lighting.
Use V-Ray Sun and Sky for natural light.
Add Area Lights and IES Lights for interior details.
🌆 Step 6: High-Quality Render Settings
Open V-Ray Asset Editor Settings.
Increase Image Sampling (Bucket Mode).
Enable Global Illumination (GI) and Ambient Occlusion (AO).
Set Resolution to 4K or 8K for high-quality output.
📐 Step 7: Subdivision for Smooth Geometry
Right-click the model and select Soften Edges.
Use V-Ray Displacement Modifier for fine details.
🖼️ Step 8: Final Render
Click Render and let V-Ray handle the high-poly details.
✅ Pro Tip:
Use Proxies for Heavy Geometry to reduce file size.
Use HDRI Environment for realistic reflections and shadows.
