About City Depths: The Black Market
Along a dark stretch of the underground city sewer is a dirty, debris filled length of Sewer Access pipe - a length that conceals the enterance to the underground Black Market! The black market is a large cavern featuring six different building types, including seller's tents and slaver's auction block. The back of the Black Market leads to a steep set of stairs that goes even farther below ground, down to Ancient Sewers of the Old City. The Ancient Sewers are partially filled with filthy water, making it a well trafficed venue for smugglers, runners, outlaws and other underworld figures. There, a dock awaits, with piles of goods ready to sell. The Sewer Access pipe allows easy integration with CD1V102-3DS Sewer Access.

The Story of City Depths Volume 1
City Depths Volume 1 takes you to a new level: below ground! Below the Old City lies another world, shrouded in mist and mystery.The City Depths series introduces a new paradigm in 3D models, designed to work together using a pre-defined connection system we call MeshConnect ™. MeshConnect models contain uniform connections between sections, allowing you much greater flexibility in creating custom configurations using pieces found in each set. In addition, connection pieces can be found between each set, allowing each model to infinitely expand upon the next.
The Depths Series
Meshbox Design's Village series of models are extremely popular with artists and animators. The Depths series (of which City Depths Volume 1 is the first) all have the following elements in common:
Internal Use. The series focuses on "internal" scenes though they will often also include a portal or external building where the "depth" orginates
MeshConnect ™. MeshConnect models contain uniform connections between sections, allowing you much greater flexibility in creating custom configurations using pieces found in each set. In addition, connection pieces can be found between each set, allowing each model to infinitely expand upon the next.
High Resolution Texture and Bump Maps. The series uses texture and bump maps that are higher than usual. This allows artists to pose characters in nearer proximity to surfaces and proces exceptional results.
Props. The Depths series include a higher number of props, allowing greater reuse.
RPG Friendly. The Depths series was developed to give storyboarders, wargamers and table-top RPG gamers the assets they need to make fresh, 3D illustrations for their games.
