I’ve been making custom 7Seas stuff for myself even before 7Seas officially released their Custom Development Kit (OpenSeas, OpenRod and Custom Prize Givers). The very first one was a fishing wand which I made for another 7Seas fisher. This fisher was also the one who told me that the scripts inside the rods can be […]

I wasn’t doing anything important this morning so I decided to give the VPRS Kiosk Kontest a try. Besides Camping and exploring, I am also an aspiring builder (we can dream right?) and this kind of contest is a great learning tool and a great way to exercise and develop some skills.
My idea for the Kiosk is to make it really simple and to use a maximum of only 5 prims. I already have a picture of the Kiosk in my mind so after putting together some basic shapes I was able to complete the frame of the kiosk. The next thing I did is create the textures. Using Photoshop and some Stock Photos, I was able to create the textures I needed for the kiosk, so, I logged back in and applied the textures I made to the kiosk. The end product looked like this:
The kiosk I made uses a log as base with wooden boards for the signs. Almost all of the textures are custom made except for the piece of wood that’s holding the big poster board.
It is only 5 prims and if you remove the big poster board then it will only be 3 prims.
The advantage of having a high prim build is that you can have more details, the disadvantage is that you’ll use more prims. With a low prim build, you can use textures to simulate the details you need. For my kiosk, I think I used 5 custom textures. 3 for the boards and 2 for the log.
