Expanding Atlantida

I'll start by saying that petipet has done an amazing job with this series of products.  We have Atlantida Weapons, Atlantida Spaceguard, Atlantida Monument, Atlatida Portal, Atlantida Copter, Atlantida Temple and Atlantida Temple Props. 

Some of his other products can also fit into this atmosphere, maybe with a little textural modification. IMO these include: Intrepid Explorer Phoenix, Space Stones, Sci-Fi Antenna, Alien Plants, and Sea Scapes.

What I am looking for are suggestions of other products that may fit the into the feel of the Atlantida world.  Before the weapons came out, I only had a tiny itch to expand my need.  But with the weapons, my main focus is finding a musical instrument that may be found alongside the weapons.

Background:  I am running a D&D campaign where I am incorporating numerous DAZ purchased items for flavor and to challenge the (very) experienced players.  The Land Shark from the store nearly killed them 2 sessions ago.  I am hoping that they will find the artifacts available to them, and when I saw the weapons, I knew I probably had the basis for the weapons and staff.  Now I need a musical instrument for the Bard.  The other Atlantida products (part of the Monument has already been seen) will probably be included as they explore and find more and more of the ancient places, but only time will tell.

So with the knowlege that the DAZ forums are populated my many talented, creative, and web-roaming individuals, I come here and ask if anyone has any ideas of what products may be available that will enhance what petipet has made available.

    Any of the Egyptian-themed stuff would work with Atlantida because of Stargate IMO.

    Well, there you go... I had nothing to do with this, but I think this stuff fits Atlantida well.

    I love the Stargate movie.  I have it on bluray but my bluray player is at my mum's place.  She will not give it back because she uses it all the time and has no replacement for it

    I have a lot of Egyptian stuff, wish I had budget right now.

    Yes, it's a very good movie & the TV shows were also pretty decent.

    I try to avoid doing Fantasy-theme stuff with my Daz as I prefer Sci Fi, but Stargate is something with a lot of cross-over ability.

    Likewise, Atlantida is one of my favorite themes as well because I can indulge in Fantasy without losing Sci Fi. You can do both with Atlantida. I think the only Atlantida thing I don't have is the spaceship, and I'm thinking about picking that up since it's on extra discount with the current sale.

    All the gold metallics in Atlantida mesh up well with our stylized Egypt. And there's the Stargate element to Atlantida. It just makes sense to mesh Egyptian & Atlantida. Quite the timely bundle, I think.

    I think with some texture tinkering you could use most fantasy items, like carriages, clothes et cetera.

    Perhaps some clothing along the line of Shades of Atlantis: http://www.daz3d.com/shades-of-atlantis-arcane-brotherhood

    And do check out that new Egypt bundle which showed up today! Got a lot of goodies in it!

    I had forgotten about the egyptitan instruments, which I already have.  Thank you for the suggestions about the egyptian items.  I don't know why, but my brain didn't go in that direction by itself.  That is why I appreciate the friendliness of these forums.

    I agree that today's releases have an odd timing with my inquiry.  Now my only qunadry is go with renewing my pc membership which is nearly due or buying the mega bundle, which is so TOTALLY impressive.  Unfortunately the megabundle will have to wait.  But I may be able to pick up something.  Have to see.

    hmm I do like the Shades of Atlantis.  Will have to keep that one in mind as well.

    There are more where Shades of Atlantis come from, at least two texture addons and some other clothes, like an armor etc but I don't remember on top of my head what they are called.
