Thanks cplymill :)
These are fairly small polycount wise. The whole thing zips (as of now) at about 14 mb.
I used rhino.
These are pretty good background props.
There is a back story to em.
Many many many years ago there was a merchant named Dolly. Nice person :)
She had a set of atlantis building that looked really neat.
I himed and hawed for more then 3 months, back and forth,trying to decide to buy it or not. (Money was really, really tight)
The very day, The very same day I finally went to buy it she got nailed in the great texture witch hunt and it was pulled, never to be seen again.
Well, my friend lil is haveing a little contest that has a requirement that it has a temple and as I was searching I came across an old picture of dollys old atlantis buildings. For all these years I've wanted it. So I decided to make my own version.
As I was modeling it I kept haveing ideas on adding this and that. So... it's expanded.
The best now that could be said is that it's "simular to". Her set (as I now know) wasn't even very good in poser, it looked like an exported vue models.
The models and textures are all completely different ofcourse with way more then enought differances to be totally legit.
Her set was available seven(7) years ago.

The great texture witch hunt. LOL it is easy to get people hunting isn' t it. I have used Rhino allot. I have made several models for Poser with Rhino. Then I found Hex. It really allowed me to lower my poly count. I still use Rhino for work but Hex for Poser/Daz. I can make the mesh there bring it into Rhino to align/array if needed and export it again and keep the low poly count. I really like Hex. I hope Daz keeps it going.
Again nice work.
