Hi guys, allow me to introduce myself and a teaser of the product(s) I'm considering selling in the marketplace. My name is John Garrison, I got started in 3d back in the DOS days as a teen using the Povray renderer and a modeller called Moray(IIRC). My current 3d collection include Blender, Amorphium, Electric Image 3d toolkit and Poser. All of those played a part in creating the image below. Basically the product is a "Swiss Family Robinson" "Robinson Crusoe" "Gilligan's Island" themed set of furniture, tools, etc. This is small sampling of what is/will be completed, and it contains errors that will be fixed. the bump map on the top of the bench is WAY to pronounced and the ropes are sagging on the nightstand. Anyhow I'm wondering what you guys think of the objects, if they are something you'd be intrested in purchasing and if so would you prefer the whole package together or the objects seperated? In the end there will be about 25 items total, so I'm thinking smaller groupings an then a bigger package as an option is the best way to go. Having them all seperate would get to expensive with the $5 minimum, but there are logical groupings for all the items.

Hello John. Jackson here. I would be very interested. I have some Vue islands that really need furnished! And I agree with your packaging strategy.

Thanks Jackson, it's good to know that people are interested, helps keep the motivation up! Sadly the machine I use to create the texture is having memory problems and behaving very badly (random crashes, lockups, etc) so I'm limited to working with the textures I've got until I get it fixed, hopefully that will be tommorow, but I dunno. I can still get a fair amount done with the textures I've got though...actually I've got an old linux box sitting here with a busted fan that should run fine long enough to make a texture or two. Either way look for something from me in the Marketplace soon, I hope to get a few of the smaller packages done in a day or so.

Some groups of bamboo of different diameters for creating walls, barricades, floors, etc would also be useful. Also a few free standing large bamboo trees with leaves for effect.

Hi Huolong, I was thinking of doing that, the textures for the bamboo and the wood include the texture for the rope/vine that is used to assemble the pieces, so there would probably be a little construction kit inluded. That would contain the wood (or bamboo), the rope torus, and instructions on how to assemble objects. I did all of the assembly of those objects in poser so it really is quite easy, and that will allow people to create matching objects that they may want and I didn't model out. My other computer is still broke, which is slowing me down because it's the only one with a copy of blender that has the decimate function, which I need to finish a stump I am working on. That will probably be the first set, A log cabin A stump (for sitting people, things on) The bench above The campfire logs above A pier and a raft that can also be used as a pier extension With the log construction kit included as well. That will be all of the things that I plan on building with the wooden logs so people won't have to download the same texture more than once for those.
