these look amazing! I'm not a big star wars fan personally, but the models are excellent!
I'm still trying to come up with the perfect storm cloud. Your cloud unit is really good but its the wrong scale for combining with the "rain" i've dug out of the database... so i'm still just using fuji's semi-circle cloud. I was thinking I might just add another 'bone' to the gr2 and have a 2nd row of fuji clouds -- but in a perfect world I'd use your fuller-looking cloud unit effect at 1.0 scale, if such were available -- or even better if it worked at 1.0 scale AND was darker, greyer, stormier looking. I have an image of my current "placeholder" model here, for reference... as you can see its imperfect for the job (but not bad, thanks again for your help with the gr2!)
There is always a demand for wooden boats and sailing ships in the VP community -- I have a few specific ones in mind (mostly conversions from civ 4), but really any age of sail naval units would be gobbled up by me or someone else in that crowd. This one might be good, or any of these (I'd especially want the ancient reed vessel out of that pack); but you could take your pick of any sail vessel really, it would be adapted for sure.
I would also like to have a few models of a "bridge" that would span 1-plot water gaps between islands/peninsulas -- there's the existing pontoon bridge from civil war, but for my tastes it only fits in that era, and looks very temporary to me when considered from the time scale of a typical game of civ. I'm thinking like an industrial era model, iron bridge, that later transitions into a more modern suspension style bridge. Bonus if there were also some kind pre-industrial, aztec-style causeway to precede these too (maybe this could just be the pontoon bridge without the pontoons).
