There are many expansion packs of furniture and textures, not listed here.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/0\/central-station?item=5138&amp;cat=&amp;_m=d\">Central Station,<\/a> also by Redhouse, is an interior set of a train station with an atrium and modular elements, including a concourse and ticket stalls. It could work for the late 1800s or early 1900s. $16.95.<\/p>\n<p>Redhouse&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/-\/dream-home-foyer?item=5419&amp;spmeta=rq&amp;_m=d\">Dream Home Foyer and Living Room<\/a> seems to be too spare for Victorian deco, but that&#8217;s just the default textures. The open floorplan includes high ceilings, a mansion-size fireplace, paneled ceilings, indoor columns, and you could probably get some Victorian grandeur out of its large-scale design, although you&#8217;d probably have to retexture. $16.95.<\/p>\n<p>Redhouse also offers a very ornate <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/-\/dream-home-foyer?item=5419&amp;spmeta=rq&amp;_m=d\">Ballroom,<\/a> which appears to be suitable for the 1700s onward. It&#8217;s just stunning, from the huge arched windows to the similar designs echoed in the doors, to detailed texturing on the carpets and bas-relief molding on the ceiling. $19.95. There are accessories and texture sets, not linked here.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Redhouse makes a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/0\/the-grand-staircase?item=5927&amp;cat=&amp;_m=d\">Grand Staircase.<\/a> It lives up to the same standards of detail and opulence exhibited in the Study and Ballroom. $19.95. The size, scale and sweep [though not the materials, colors or decorations] of the Grand Staircase remind me of the entrance to the McKim Building of Boston Public Library.<\/p>\n<p>AntFarm offers the narrow, slummy building <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/environments\/end-of-the?item=8075&amp;cat=35&amp;_m=d\">The End of the Line.<\/a> I think it might be good for tenements of despair [with the removal of the el tracks, of course]. $19.95.<\/p>\n<p>Predatron&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i.x\/shop\/itemdetails\/-\/?item=6162&amp;cat=&amp;_m=d\">City Streets<\/a> is a comprehensive set of buildings and such that, with judicious choices, could produce a packed residential\/commercial district suitable for the fin-de-siecle. $28.95. Compare to Stonemason&#8217;s photorealistic, meticulous, more expensive <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/-\/urban-living?item=3541&amp;_m=d\">Urban Living,<\/a> which I think has too many modern touches, but could possibly be used for Victorian ends. $35.95.<\/p>\n<p>Ness Period Reproduction&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/exterior\/townhouse?item=5917&amp;cat=33&amp;_m=d\">Townhouse,<\/a> an exterior set, would probably be most appropriate for city living, with a detailed facade, fence, gaslight, etc. $23.95.<\/p>\n<p>Silverleif makes an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/-\/urban-living?item=3541&amp;_m=d\">SS Balcony<\/a> with stonework background, opening\/shutting doors, stained glass windows to either side. $9.95.<\/p>\n<p>Exotica and others have collaborated on an interior set, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daz3d.com\/i\/3d-models\/exterior\/boudoir?item=337&amp;cat=33&amp;_m=d\">The Boudoir,<\/a> with a big arched window, a balcony, full furnishings including a canopy bed, a settee, a huge dresser, stained glass windows, framed paintings, etc. $14.95. Not as elaborate in texture or construction as anything by Redhouse or Stonemason, The Boudoir is still servicable and very versatile, especially for the price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found some more Victorian sets on Daz&#8217; Web site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1424","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1424","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1424"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1424\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1424"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1424"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/oddpla.net\/modernwizard\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1424"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
