Contributions from Richard mostly, and Tracy only rarely . Albert unfortunately, is no longer with us to type his thoughts - however as most of them were unprintable, it's probably better that he can't type them.
BIO
Richard's a Mechanical Engineer specialising in Stress Analysis. Due to the poor state of Finite Element Modellers he's spent a fair bit of time writing translators to enable packages like Poser, Studio, Truspace etc to act as modellers for mechanical products. Why not use CAD.. Because the file formats are too complex! Tracy is a Library assistant in Europe's largest learning resource centre (University library & computer department to most!). We used to have a character cat called Albert. He features in a picture or two.
Richard occasionally makes a few freebies which he distributes with the aide of Renderosity, mostly as a way of saying 'Thank you' for the help he's been given over the years by other members of the community. Though, making these items does also act as an outlet for a need to create that is occasionally stifled by the paperwork associated with his job.

This prop was a bit of fun, nothing more.
DAZ Forum member Sazzyazzca asked for a Lawn Ornament/ Garden Gnome last year, and I noticed the thread for the first time this week. Anyway I can't model a gnome, so I looked on Thingiverse for some suitable models. This was one.
It comes from (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:88207), and was created by MakerBot and distributed with the Creative Commons Attribution 4 License (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) . Changes were made. I converted the STL to obj, then UV mapped and imported it into DS, and finally created a texture for the prop.
The prop is intended to look like a home painted garden gnome. Hope you enjoy it.
The gnome mesh was created by MakerBot with a scan, as a result the poly count is high - about 93k.
For those users of other packages, there is an obj file.
