Kerkythea has released a new version of their rendering engine. There is a plugin developed that will work with both the Free and Pro version of SketchUp. Render times have decreased as well as new interfaces for the material editor and enhanced editing. Worth a look to any SU user.

Very easy to use.

Now this was with basic settings and only 1 light. Better results can be easily gotten.

SketchUp just keeps jetting better, the render looks sweet, I had a quick look at the link to the plugin but never seen a price, I take it you do have to play for this plugin?

Uh, no. Free render program and free plug-in.
This new one can also use Xfrog items (trees and shrubs) for exterior scenes.
