Would you test this for me please?
Made with SimPE v 0.38, Milkshape and UVMapper it has its own unique (registered) GUID, it is EP compatable (not required) and is colour enabled.
Polygon Count: 1123 (= OK) vertices:840
This a kettle based on the million-selling Michael Grave Alessi 'Bird' design (which I can't afford in real life!

Although I have been producing very low polygon objects recently, this was one where I felt that I could justify 'upping' the count a little.
Basically, there's no point to produce this kettle without the detail or retaining as much curvature as possible (that's what makes it such a beautiful design).
However, I have managed to keep it within the 'normal' guidelines


One of the reasons I made this was when I checked my 'old' kettle, I was mortified to see how high the polygon count was, and so wanted to make a kettle that was within the guidelines. (I made the 'old' one before we all knew about the poly counts issue...sorry!!)
It can be found in Decorative / All - Price:85 simoleons (much cheaper than the original!

It can be 'viewed' (mine was dissapointed...but then he's an ungrateful little sh*t)... but it won't make tea (or instant coffee) for you. There are no animations ...sorry...I don't know how to do them.
It comes in all the 'normally' available Alessi colour combinations (see pics)
Please report any issues and thanks for testing

enjoy!
Bob
Recolours: (As with all my objects,) please DO NOT post any files that contain my original mesh.
You are free to post your recolour files (preferably here, in the recolours section). Please pm before posting recolours....I always reply!.. as I love to see what you recolour artists can do with my stuff!
LOTS: Please do NOT include this (or any other of my objects) in any LOT uploads. These are BETA objects, here for testing, and not yet ready to 'inflict' on an unsuspecting LOT downloader
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
