No offense but I recommend practicing for a while longer before releasing a model pack.
Then again, I might be wrong.

You could make a 10 peace set of streetsings alone. There must be more then 100 different types of streestings in the world (just nameboards allone). they all have different designs & manufacturers & producton methods & production dates that give them their unique appearance. Make shure you're have some good reference pic's before you start, otherwise you're likely to end up with a moddel that is only a lookalike. It's nice to have a moddel pack containing different versions of a same object. For each of the streetsign designs moddeled you can make differnt kinds of textures.

here are some Ideas

# not so hard
- streetsings that can te attached to a pole
- stand alone streetsings showing directions
- stand alone streetsings showing streetnames
- roadblocks signs,
- those cones they put up at construction works

# advanced:
- streetsigns on a metal rig line the ones you find of freeways.
- street sings that are deformed by wind.
- street sings that are deformed by carcrash (need some kind of metal and stripped away paint).

hope this is helpfull.

[edit] One more suggestion. Before you start modeling, take a moment to solve wat details you will be moddeling, or be bumpmaping or be skipping.

Make an urban building pack and add some small extra items too, like signs, roads, trees?

Judging by this thread I would agree with Alucard94 on the fact that you should practice much more before releasing any model pack. Most if not all of your models seem like very simple primitives with an extrusion or two and could use a lot more detail before they are of "model pack" quality.

Sorry my friend, but I have to agree with Alucard and co. It's great that you have motivation, but practicing never hurts. If you do make a pack, why not make some street scenery, like postboxes/benches etc.?

Best.
