Quote - I think I remember reading he was unhappy about Renda's price.

me? no
i was unhappy about doing a full GND style custom morph on her and then the base product got pulled (IIRC because of CR2 similarities to V3) and all the buyers refunded, basically wasting a lot of my time.

but Rosity compensated me for that and then bought my morph outright to use as a new Renda default shape, which would have been pretty cool but then (if memory serves, and mine is horrible) they discovered that there were also some mesh dimensional similarities to V3 and the entire product was scrapped.

Rosity really cant be blamed for Renda, perhaps only for being careless of who they outsourced the work to. they spent a lot of time and money on her and got screwed because the person who they contracted to do the work took shortcuts.

if Renderosity wanted to pool together a bunch of merchants for another similar project I'd probably give it another go, but only if there was total transparency of who was doing what. I STILL dont know who modelled/rigged Renda and screwed us all, but he is still owed a tar and feathering by the dozens of merchants that put time and effort into her.
