Looking for Complete Exterior Fantasy Cities

I'm probably overlooking them, but I can't seem to find any exterior fantasy cities in the Daz Store. Not looking for medieval towns or historic places or sci-fi/futuristic. Think Skyrim or other fantasy video games.

The props that come to mind that have a fantasy look and feel are Shroom Castle, Dark Tower and Chasm of Chaos, but I'd prefer to get a complete city that loads everything at once, similar to the way the first Greebles set has a preload of all blocks.

Edit: I prefer 3Delight materials since I am rendering CPU-only, but Iray is fine too.

Any suggestions?

    Greetings,

    Do you want to be 'in the city' like you can with Stonemason's 'Streets Of...' and 'Urban Sprawl' sets, or is the city far in the distance?

    some things are from other sites

    Dragonsbridge is form here and a few bits of other sets

     

    a complete elven village can be found on another site

    searching elven village Meshbox should find it

    cant think of a complete preset.

    mebbe DM sets in one of flipmode's environments.

    Predatron and Merlin make nice rpg-ish stuff

    Yeah, Meshbox is probably your best bet.. nice stuff.

    Shantara City is pretty good fantasy city for medium to long distance shots, quick iray render below with Iray Worlds Super Pak for the sky.

    And it was made before iray, so it should look just as good in 3DL.

    Greetings,

    Shantara City is why I asked about distance vs. close-up.  If you can get it cheap, it's not a bad distance city.  It regularly goes on sale for ~70% off, or at least it used to.

    To mangle Clueless:

    Tai: Do you think Shantara City's pretty? 
    Cher: No, it's a full-on Monet. 
    Tai: What's a monet? 
    Cher: It's like a painting, see? From far away, it's OK, but up close, it's a big old mess.

    Thank you everyone! Never heard of Meshbox! It has a cool assortment of villages (Orcs, Elves etc.) , and Shantara City is an option for distance.

    @CypherFOX, for this particular render the main character would be above the city, looking out towards it. Probably medium distance. Thanks!

    @th3Digit, that is a cool elven village! Will check out Dragonsbridge too. Thanks for letting me know about Meshbox! Thanks also @Fisty!

    @DSDT, thanks for the render and recommendation for Shantara City! It's in my wishlist.

    @Mistara, will check out Predatron and Merlin. I like Flipmode's environments, so I might use Top of the World for where my main character will be standing. Thanks!

    Thanks @rk66. Some nice sci-fi and medieval castles there! smiley
