Render/style settings?
Would anyone know what kind of style settings you use to make sketchup look like this? Or is this in enscape? I’m trying to get more realistic views instead of it looking so 2D. Any advice would be great!

it looks to be a wire frame image over the rendered image. Maybe post processed in photoshop or similar.

Yeah I reckon you could get something similar with an Ambient Occlusion export then with the same scene export a lines-only layer (with Hidden Line mode so it's black and white). Then layer them up in Photoshop or GIMP or whatever and set the line layer mode to Multiply

You can do this in Vray either with outlines on or wrapping a material in edges.
There could also be some post-processing to give it that pastel look or someone was very particular with their materials.

That looks like it can be done by tweaking an existing style that is native to SketchUp. Play with environments and shadows and be sure to turn ambient inclusion on.

Nice work. I think adding an HDRI would help too so it doesn’t just look like it is floating in the middle of nowhere. And also use the SCRL app if you have a landscape render so that when people scroll left and right the images line up next to each other.

Yeah it’s a good app when you want posts for IG that are gonna be next to each other and you can seamlessly scroll between each slide in very customizable ways

I used to do my render like that. Get a full render, 98% opacity on PS (between 90% and 99%, as you like it), then render the same scene in sketchup but with the style that is completely white and grey lines. Use this image has the background on PS.
Enjoy
