ORIGINAL POST:

The SenshiStock USB drives have all the stock from Shoots 1-26 in them. It's about 3000 files, 4GB of stock and it's a quick way to have a huge selection of reference images on the go.

Since the release of the USB, people have asked about how to get the stock that was shot after Shoot 26. Much of the post-Shoot 26 stock is being sold through advance download packs on SenshiStock.com.  They rotate every 6 weeks and once a pack comes down, it's gone until it starts getting posted to the DA gallery.

However, there's still a LOT of stock that isn't going into those packs for various reasons. That other stock is stuck in limbo, waiting for its turn in the gallery.

For that reason, SenshiStock USB Drive 2.0 is now something I am considering. Instead of blue, this drive would be red to easily tell it apart. It would have everything from Shoots 27-35 that isn't going to be sold as a pack on SenshiStock.com.  It would also include the hand and foot packs.  I can talk to Jade about including the stuff I did with him, too (though all of that is already posted to the gallery).  It could also include the entire pregnancy shoot that I will be doing later this month.

I just took a peek and it's currently about 1,700 new images at 4.21 GB.  Plus the stock with Jade and the pregnancy shoot and it should be over 2,200 images. This drive, like the last one, would be $20 + $5 shipping. It's a few less images for the price, but the quantity of unreleased images is much higher (only about 120 images have been posted from these newer shoots so far). Also, many of the stock images are of much higher quality since Shoot 26 was my first shoot with the DSLR and I have worked with some talented photographers since then.

What do you guys think about a second USB drive? Is it something you'd be interested in pre-ordering to help with the upfront costs? If you already have the first USB, is it working out well for you? Any other feedback?

Thanks all and as always, happy drawing! ^___^
