Creature Kitbash does not install on Blender v 5.1.2 ,any chance you can update to Blender v 5.1.2?
Also give your Beta Testers a copy?

Thanks so much for dropping the review David. Really happy to hear you're having a good time with the addon :)
Great selection of organic meshes. Add-on is easy to use and the Youtube tutorials are fantastic.
This kitbash is simply amazing, not to mention Jamie's video documentation is superbly done and clarifies topology and how to correct some of the crazy things Blender does with booleans. I would have to say this addon is the "Blender addon of the year". Well done, thanks Jamie and your team simply amazing!

Oh wow, thanks so much for those kind words Evilmp!
And I'm very pleased to see you're getting so much out of the addon.
I bought this today and I haven't had it for very long but I've had so much fun with it. I'm still pretty new to Blender but I learned so much from the YouTube videos. I was able to make a birdbear with no problems. This is the funnest add on I've ever purchased. I look forward to future updates!

"This is the funnest add on I've ever purchased."
Very nearly fell of my seat laughing when I read this. I feel I need to make it part of my marketing plan.
Really happy to hear you're enjoying the addon Charlie. And yes, there's plenty of plans for future updates ;)
I'd say 4.5stars.
Pros
Plenty of mesh to kitbash, all organic though, nothing hard-edge like robotics, wheels, guns etc.
hopefully creator evolves this library over time, much potential.
cons:
For the 5star rating, it would require each mesh to be named/tagged in a way where viewed in the asset library it sorted/arranged in chunks.
for example: head_001_Gremlim, head_002_Horse, torso_001_Human
This I think would neatly organise the asset library.

Hey Marc, thanks for such a high rating. Glad to see you're enjoying :)
There's definitely plans to expand the range of assets, although I hadn't really considered robotic elements. I'd been leaning into the 'Creature' part of the Kitbash title, but there's no doubt some hard-surface elements would allow for some pretty cool designs. I'll have a think and see what we can come up with.
It's really hard to come up with the best naming convention, or sorting style. Currently it's arranged so each creature part appears next to the corresponding creature. So all the bird parts are together. All the Orc parts are together. If we were to rename everything into body part categories, someone would be upset the horse parts weren't next to each other.
But you can always tap into the Asset Manager search function. Everything has been named so that searching for "head" will bring up all the heads. Or "torso" to bring up all the chest pieces. "Wings" or "horns" are two of my favorite.
At some point we'll hopefully be able to use the Asset Browser to choose custom layouts, but for now hopefully that will get people through.
