Corona Renderer - how to bring more happiness to Sketchup :)

Hi boys and girls:)
Do You know Sketchup ? I suppose that answer is "yes" :)
Do You know Corona Renderer ? I'll be really dissapointed if answer is other than "yes" :)
Now it's time to say "Hello Corona, is possible to meet You in Sketchup?"
Corona Renderer Team announced closed beta tests for first development stage in Corona for Sketchup plugin. Do You know what it's mean? ;)
Corona is very good, very fast and very easy to learn CPU renderer. Fast as hell! Actually i'm beta tester for this stage of Corona Sketchup plugin development and i want to say - WOW!
In tess actually is rather stable, export is very fast at this stage, and it's a lot of fun to play with a new ....a new ...FEATURE ....are you ready??? With INTERACTIVE REAL TIME RENDERING in Sketchup!!! Yessssss! That is it! 
2 milion polygons of pure geometry (huge building with many details)  is no problem for export and realtime render. I don't know roadmap for this plugin, but with every news it's getting more interesting and stable:)
Are you Sketchup enthusiast and you want to help in Sketchup plugin development? Check this link, read posts on forum:
https://corona-renderer.com/forum/index.php/topic,10237.0.html
There are informations how to participate in beta version. But remember - Corona Team need your help - have you found a bug in Corona plugin for Sketchup - please use bugtracker (MantisBT platfrom) to report it :)

I made some new 3D Trees collection for Thea Render engine.

Many people are using Vray, Maxwell, Octane or Corona engine to rendering, time to time people are talking about Arnold or Renderman engine. Cinema 4D has own rendering engine Lightwave too.
Over year ago i found that there is some other cool render engine - Thea Render (over 5 years ago i used Kerkythea engine made by the same company). Thea is very fast and easy to learn and has some wide range of plugins to connect Thea with other software - 3D Max, Cinema 4D, Sketchup (yeeees!), Rhino, Blender. In previous week i prepared ready to use library with detailed 3D trees models which is available for free for all Thea licensed users. Link for info and download:
https://www.thearender.com/site/index.php/resources/thea-libraries/thea-trees.html

I hope that Thea users find this stuff useful :)

KRITA - I found some interesting software - FREE software!

This weekend i spent a lot of time working in my garden, but at night i spend a lot of time to make some research in 2D software market.

But KRITA developers want to create software which will be be much faster than Photoshop anD still FREE. But KRITA team need some little donation at kickstarter site - they are working many years almost for free, but i see that now it's more serious project than ever previous.
