Cool! Are those your actual vendors and if so how do you have your clothes split between them 
Just curious.

/cheer Yay! I've been waiting for this pic to get posted. Love your idea and it looks great, especially in that main room of the medium Naboo. Please tell me your house name has Mount Olympus in it and is on top of a hill?
Now all you need are a few other crafter/merchants to place vendors that suit some of the other gods. Mercury = vehicles/mounts, Vulcan = weapons/armor, etc. Heh.

Actually Ares is going to carry armor... Zeus has the odds-and-ends (repair kits, vehicles,AUK's, etc)and the other 4 are mine.
Hades= accessories, belts, shoes, bandoliers, headgear, gloves
Aphrodite = female only items (anything with gender restrictions)
Poseidon = formal and slinky items (i.e. hotpants, dress slacks, robes, etc)
Athena = casual and field gear (cloaks, dusters, pants, etc)
Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to have it come out in the picture, but the backpacks next to the gods tell what is on them. For example a backpack will say "Zeus: vehicles, blah blah" in yellow, to contrast the walls.
Probably though I'm going to convertHades into BE only, and split the accessories among the other vendors. By the time I took out all the female-only headgear and shoes from Hades and stuck it on Aphrodite, there was not a whole lot left.
Aphrodite was wearing an elaborate headdress until she developed twitch. I put her in a more generic "greek goddess robe" until I can figure out what I want her to wear.
Actually - the house is named Castle Anthrax /snicker.

I love it. I remember you talking about this idea awhile ago. Nice to see the finished product. Kudos

Awesome! The vendors each really look their part as well. You are an example to us all!

Thanks so much! Let's not even talk about how many vendors I had to destroy, and even so I'm not satisfied (Zeus doesn't have a beard! But the long gray hair was too perfect to delete!)

Isn't working on vendors one of the items for Image Design? I remember reading that they were asking about that. Maybe it was in the merchant thread though....

Really nice looking shop
I also have a medium Naboo but have a major problem with lighting, how have you managed to get the main room so brightly lit? Ive tried torches and street lamps but the whole of the main room is just too dark. The side rooms are fine but im having trouble with my display area. I was starting to think Id have to upgrade to a Large Naboo. But your pics show it as very brightly lit.
Any tips would be gratfully recived.

I read that too. It was in the 10 answers thread over in ID. Poor TH, getting so hammered for his vague and non-answers.

The lighting in those houses is awful. I find that no matter how many torches you put in the main area, the balcony overhang shadows trump them. What I've done, to improve night vision, is alter the gamma correction on the options menu, so I can actually see.

I will love it if they ever make it so an ID can work on my vendors. I only have so much patience when creating and destroying vendors.
