does anyone have bluprints of the bundy sets or know where to find them.i'm going to try to rebuild the sets and cast in blender. i've never modeled 3d stuff before so it'll take me along time. but any high quality pics bluprints etc links will help. thanks.

a) sorry, I've no blueprints. I think the only way to get them is to ask Sony.
b) good luck for asking Sony :)
c) indeed you'll need much time if you've never modeled before

i may not need the blue prints after all. i'm useing blender and it will put up a semi transparent photograph in the forground so so you can march the camera view to the photo. it's going to take alot longer but it will be 100% accurate and to scale. you have to model a little bit, change photos, reposition the camera, model a little more.... .

and i can get almost all the photos i want now. i finally learned how to do screen captures. i always thought the print screen button didn't work, i didn't realize you had to paste it into paint or photoshop. and i'm going to try to get the textures out of the photos too. but thanks for trying dan.

i just realized that i might be able to email ee bell, he might have some, or be able to draw some.

He's never written me back on anything. You mean you're gonna try and recreate the whole thing life-size? Or a small model?

in a computer program, not in real life. you can scale it to be as large or as small as you need it to be. i'm going for something you can walk around in and look at stuff, maybe put transcripts in some book on the shelf, maybe a photo album. later create the characters and see if i can hook in aiml so you can talk to them. thats going to take years. but the set i'm going to try to have done in a few months. right now i'm still learning blender.

then maybe i'll start making some simple games for it. a show throwing contest in the mall, maybe an obstical corse race. a mini dodge gocart race, that kind of stuff. when i get anything done i'll post it here and it'll be for free. fan content is legal but when money gets involved it turns into copywrite violations.

Interesting idea with the camera perspective.
The only "problem" will be the depth of space. Since I work also with 3d-programms (blender, c4d) I know that it all sounds easier than it is. But I'm sure you'll do it.

I always had the idea to re-create the bundy house in a virtual 3d environment where you can "walk around".

I don't think that E.E.Bell has some plans - but try to ask him - maybe he can help.

He always wrote me back - he also sent me an large autograph (and paid the postal charges :0) himself) --> http://www.albundy.net/other_pics/own_s ... _cover.jpg :O)

He did??!! Holy sh!t! Was it a long time ago? Cause I would really want an autograph from him. But he hasn't updated his page in years :/
