    Interesting idea!

     

    And, By Grabthar's Hammer, it should be filled with Questerians!

    I'd love this environment too  but I'd run in terror at making it due to the sheer number of small props that would be needed, not to mention the texturing of all those props.

    Things like the bathroom could be done with other sets + grunge shaders and general litter props. The hall itself and the tables would be easy enough. Perhaps texturing the floor with those temporary carpets that they put down to form walkways (or having those as separate props). I'm thinking there'd need to be a stage area or a raise bit with a long table for panels and/or famous-group signing sessions.

    Do you have any reference pics for the kind of look you want?

    Renderosity has the 'Monto Varchi Expo' product which has some of what you want, perhaps?

    I hear what your are saying Ostadan.
    That Monto Varchi Expo' looks pretty good.  I think the expedient thing would be getting that expo, and then Fiddle-Faddle-ing it to meet your requirement.  Change the company signs etc etc... Youd have to take your already owned Sci-Fi assets to fill the booths.  Scale Space Ships and Star Wars/Space characters  down, then create instances to put them on tables.  Yadda Yadda.

    Sylvan made Market Stall which has a table that might be able to used. Another thought I had one time was using billboards from River Soft Art to populate the crowds, but couldn't props be also made as billboards? The Denver Con seems to have lots of swords and sorcery, sci-fi, fantasy, comics, fandom stuff, along with local college/university's art/engineering schools displays and don't forget programs for the younger kids... And book/comic stalls and their attendent authors...
