I was surprised at the interest of everyday poses so it made me wonder what types of props do you have?

At the moment, my most used prop is Bagginsbill's water. I'm absolutely fascinated with it. Other props include a sailboat I made in Blender, street texture from Le Village and the essential Terradome.
I have a collection of other props that would fill a city, including the interior of a Boeing 737, houses (haven't figured out how to get a good camera angle in them and panning is a total pain), nature props which I've learned to use sparingly... sheesh, a park bench which I use all the time.
Actually props are a one-item-per-scene proposition given the age of my 'puter. It's getting a bit long in the tooth, poor ol' thing.
What would I like to see? Period scenes from like the pioneer days. NOT the inside of a saloon or a general store, but like of a sitting room circa 1890. That would be fun to do.

He has a water prop? Do you have a link? I've been busy with my new job and haven't been keeping up on the forums :(
So far as props go, I have all kinds. My absolute favourite are fans and umbrellas! hehe
I also have a couple of favourite themes: Mystical/magic, and anything Asian!!

I thought about buying some fans and umbrellas but I couldn't figure out what to do with them.

That's a good balance of props there. You are almost like a prop library. lol

BB's water is actually a thread started by momodot about Refraction. It's somewhere on the page. :)

Props - buildings, machinery, realistic stuff, vehicles, weapons, SF style things, spacecraft, industrial stuff, everyday objects.
Actually, pretty much anything because it may just come in handy one day. Over the years I've accumulated a hell of a lot of stuff - and spent a lot of money in the process - buying content on the basis of "I may need that".

@mousso: it is not really a water prop at all. It is a set of shader nodes designed to simulate different bodies of water connected to a flat plane. To achieve maximal affect, you should use it in association with BB's Envsphere or Terradome. The link is below:

I own a collection of various props from space ships to small everyday items. Like SamTherapy, you never know when you need it. Currently, I have been playing with Terradome and very recently acquired some DMI vehicles to test shaders.**

I tend to collect everyday real-world type props like tin cans, soda machines, screws, etc to use for scene clutter to make my scenes look more realistic

I'm thinking of making some SF type scene clutter soon. Free, of course. :)

I collect what I can get, on a "I may need that" base too. I especially like buildings and enviroments.

Quality props of any kind.
I'm Fond of antiques ... from the 1960s back.
Would like to have StingRay Bike and a RedRyder BB gun ... (sound like a boys Christmas wish List)
By the way does Quester still have site ? He made some nice firearms.

So far I didn't have any luck with Envsphere but I will certainly try this.
Thanks :)

:blushing: Oh dear... I'm sorry I misled you, Acadia. It's actually the Poser ground onto which I attach his water shader. This IS about props...

Thanks, Ockham, but I don't think a 1910 kitchen is going to work for what I have in mind, when I need an 1890 sitting room. Thanks anyway. Nice work, btw!

I collect lots of stuff, most free , and scene fillers. Thats glasses and bottles, plates, anything that make a scene looked lived in.

Oh gawd...;) I have 188 CDs (well, now I'm doing DVDs, they hold more), 29,000+ items, pretty much everything I might need that is too complicated for me to model.
I got a shock the other night when I discovered I'd created 700 megabytes of object files (though, true to Sturgeon', 90% of them are crap...;) over the last 8 years...:)
I don't have a kitchen sink, but almost everything else is covered...;) Though I do have a link for one...;)

"By the way does Quester still have site ? He made some nice firearms."
I think that his western guns and gunbelts are still at Daz freepository along with perhaps some others.
I think almost any image benefits from items that root it in a time and place. Even NVITWAS needs the odd tapestry to warm up a drafty temple, potion bottles and dragon toys. If you look around, it's amazing how much 'stuff' is in a typical room. When you account for different time periods and social classes, it's often difficult to find enough scene fillers to really reflect the way people liv(ed). Even medieval peasants had stuff, though not a lot of it.
Oddly, no one has mentioned any erotic props. Not that I have any, it wasn't on my list - so I don't have any. Yes, that's a medical device; move along!
