Yeah, i'm burned out on dystopic, i want escapism and nostalgia. Really hoping to see more Stonemason Americana one of these days, or even more futuristic utopia (however unlikely that may be).
Instancing and duplication of repeating geometry elements, array mutiplication of parts for the models (especially in an environment like this), and substance painter with decals to lay down and speed up the texturing. SM has been doing this a long time and as I understand it, he's a VFX professional. So he no doubt has the knowing and doing to do what he does.
Professional 3D world uses a lot of AI to do stuff. I learned this from hanging out with some professional 3D people. It's increasingly the way of things. I learned another thing doing some research, too: Generated work mostly does have copyright standing if the people using the AI document their processes - that would be prompts used, outputs, additional inputs, etc. It's actually only generated AI images made by AI with no human guidance that has absolutely no standing. Now, I'm not going to repeat what I said on another site about how AI art is winning in the art world and marketplace because I already posted it. I may format it into an article and post that soemwhere else. I haven't yet, but I would argue, we are reaching the point where the world doesn't care how the image or the asset was made, and good luck proving how it was made. Because some folks who do not use AI at all also don't document their process. And as mentioned above, there is such thing as shoddy modeling, process can be faked, etc, ad nauseum. I don;t like it, but I have processed it. Until the courts rule on what happens due to how the source data sets for all AI models was collected, the fair use issue, there's not much else to say about it.
I loved it and immediately put it in my cart, but I admit that my very first thought as someone who watches a lot of "building off the grid" type TV shows, where they often use shipping containers, was "there's no way that would ever be a stable construction." I did some quick research and, yes, while shipping companies may occasionly stack containers between 9 and twelve feet high on a temporary basis in a yard, permanent, residential construction is usually limited to just three or four containers high due to stability issues due to wind surface, shifting internal loads,and ground settling, and even then requires unit to unit clamps, heavy concrete pads, and massive external steel reinforcements... especially once the basic container shape has been heavily modified with cut-outs, let alone unevenly balanced and stacked as here. Still, I'm buying it because 1.) it is just so amazingly cool and 2.) I figure it will be an amazing base for building "off the grid stuctures" of my own.
Stonemason's Rust Town is just what I was looking for as part of a near-future project. The quality and detail are impressive, particularly compared to some much older dystopian sets I have (these are looking a bit long in the tooth).. As AsuCafe said, hang a clothesline and clothes. I plan on adding some signs and decals, flags, and maybe a few strings of Christmas Lights. Convert some modules into small storefronts, add some more potted and hanging plants.
What do we think of Nelmi's new skimp wear? It looks quite well fitted to be very revealing. Is the download enormous? Did anyone get it and play around with it?

Details not yet checked
Thanks for that! It's a sane download size.
The shipping companies aren't afraid of piling them up, but they also lose some sometimes. Happened in 2023 where I am where Maersk lost 46 containers during a storm, some of which drifted to the shore. Quite a mess.

they seem to sit like this for years without collapsing and falling over, I used to drive past this area weekly which is full of shipping yards and containers
as soon as you start cutting doors and windows into them you pretty much ruin the structural support though, not that it matters in a fictional setting where shotguns make people fly backwards from the blast, and every parked car conveniently has the car keys conveniently sitting above the visor. i really hate hollywood for all the stupid tropes they creates.
Stonemason's containers also look like the actual size of a container. A 20-foot container’s dimensions are standardised in the shipping industry, measuring about 20 feet in length (equivalent to 6.10 metres), 8 feet in width (2.44 metres), and 8.5 feet in height (2.59 metres). Most so called container house products I've seen in the shops are far too wide and that includes today's release which is another that's going to need an outhouse out the back.
Poor Lass, that must sting something chronic...
Sort of needs a few additional props of mix and match heads, torsos, feet, hands, legs and arms to have lying about on the sideboard, and needing a BIG staple gun.

That is a weird outfit. It says neither urban nor aristocrat to me.
looks like Temu polyester and foam plastic
Looks like a very cheap Van Helsing knock off to me....

The roof design is interesting; it looks simple at first glance, but the interior is exquisite and well-designed. The base is designed to adapt to various terrains. It would be even more perfect if it had an attic and windows on top, but I happen to know of a tool that can do that.
PrecisionArt9 doesn't have many products, but they all left a deep impression on me.

My first Art Ken product was only 75.8MB in size, and it looks amazing in actual use! Wow, I'm definitely adding Art Ken hair to my top shopping list!
it may be based off something anime/manga
I just can't imagine the aristocrat being interested in the mundane materials:
I am looking at https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-lv-urban-aristocrat-outfit-for-genesis-9 in my D|S and I am amazed at the 82 options to modify the four piece outfit. For me, this is a perfect Sci-Fi business suit for a man of the future.
The loafers are very well done and could easily be used for modern clothing as well that does not include shoes. Though the blue color is a bit 'odd' to me, but there is black, grey and brown and nothing to keep one from using their favorite leather shaders.
This would be true for the rest of the outfit, the pants, shirt and coat.
For $2.99 this was a bargain and a real gift for those of us who enjoy playing with our clothing choices. Thank you to @Leviathan. I love this outfit.

Don't let his pants fall down without a waistband
Think of those slacks that had no belt loops, but rather a zipper and a clip and hook that was hidden to make a clean appearance in the 1970s/1980s (?). Of course I would cover that area up, so I am not bothered by it.
Edit to add: I just got it, 'Blue Suede Shoes'! A bit before my time, but seriously I should have remembered. Totally out of context though.
It's a very British late 60's/early 70s look, with the nehru collar and sansabelt pants, which is probably where the "aristocrat" comes from. It reminds me a lot of the male clothing that Syliva Anderson designed for the legendary UFO TV series, which went on to become one of the primary design inspirations for Japanese anime and manga designers for the next four decades, so WendyLuvsCatz's anime comment seems spot on.
@Cybersox, that is fascinating. I will have to mention this to my flatmate who is big into Japanese anime and manga (along with Korean and Chinese versions) and may have examples in his room.
The fun thing about fashion is that it keeps being reinvented over the decades.
I keep re-reading a Sci-Fi series set in 31st Century of a civilization based on settlers from mainly India and other empires from other areas of our world. Indian clothing, customs, food, culture, religion are still present and I get frustrated by my limited visual knowledge of what items/things are. I keep promising myself to research the items and pull it together as a learning experience. (Good to keep the old brain working.)
ANGELREAPER1972 not me
I just thought it looked cheap, the clothing, not the modeling, that is quite good
