I almost was expecting Humphrey Bogart sit on one of these chairs, smoking a cigarette at the terrace...

As a workaround, you can draw up-scaled versions of the small objects, lets say measures x10 or x100, and then down-scale to the correct size before save the definitive result.

By the way, congrats for these beautiful and detailed renderings.

Easy and simple idea - and it totally works!!!

Glad to know. I'm wondering it too. May be Emmanuel can explain it, although I'm not sure whether it's a SH3D or SunFlow ...
