Hi! I was thinking about selling this model: http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=417408 I of course won't sell it until: A)The game is released. or B)The game never is released. lol What do you think, would any of you buy it? How much do you think it is worth? Thank you! Virum

I think it is very original and attractive. I think it depends on which market you would be trying to sell to. For Poser I am discovering that the artists seem to want lots of places that they can pose their characters in. So you might have to include some extra places where they could put the characters other than the front door area. Poser is absolutely the biggest market here as I'm sure you know :) I'm interested in seeing your game when it comes out -especially if the rest of the architecture is like you tower -what style will it be? (adventure, role-playing??) Jacqueline

It would be nice with some openings, like up at the top. i like the shape..The texture I'm not too crazy about. the shape and style is great though. i've seen stuff range from 6-10 on average. i have no idea what would be a good price. Susan

$10 or under. some of the other sets in the marketplace like alter settings, castle props etc go for that range. the texture on the ground looks streched and not right. the bricks look wrong. a nice old stone look would be very cool. I agree with the others, needs a room at the top, portals looking out or something. Think LOTR 2 towers, where we see the old wizard pacing around at the top of his tower. Or wizards shooting fireballs down at the orcs trying to get in to steal wizards chest etc. it's a different take on the old tower model, and I certainly think you have something there. You may want to create something similar but different and then sell that, so you don't have to wait for the game to arrive. those are my thoughts anyway, keep modeling, you've got a unique style there.

Jacqueline: Thanks for the comments. I'll consider modeling rooms for the tower. The game is going to be an Real Time Strategy (like StarCraft). It merges Fantasy, and Technology. Anyway, the best part about this, is that the game (or at least most of it) will be free! Susan: Well, if you don't like hte texture that i ok. IT achieves the "look" of the tower, its supposed to look surreal wizard tower, very magical, and I think it achieves that look. Thanks for the input. MachineClaw: Thank you for your input. As about the texture, I don't plan on changing it. Our team has responded to tthis model (and its texture) very favoribly, I may create another model.... Thanks. Anymore comments are welcome.
