There’s two ways to do this – you can either adjust the settings of a SketchUp material, or you can apply a Vray material to your model.

If you click on any of these materials, your material preview will show you a preview of what that material is going to look like within your Vray Rendering. Notice that this will correspond with the materials contained in the “In Model” dropdown of your material editor in SketchUp. When you first open up the material editor, you’re going to see a list of the materials currently contained in the SketchUp model.

Click on the circle with the checkerboard pattern to access the material editor. To start off, material editing in Vray 3.6 occurs within the asset editor, which can be found in the Vray for SketchUp toolbar.So far, when working with Vray, we’ve talked about lighting our models – now I want to give you an introduction to working with materials in Vray.
