I've been wondering what it would look like with half doors and the side panels off. I don't have half doors, but with a little photo-editing I added some. I also "painted" the c-pillar as long as I was making changes.
Actually I do have several sets of half door uppers - one factory set of 4 with vinyl windows, and one set of 4 with glass slider windows, but I don't have any lower doors to put them on. They'd be perfect with the roll-up soft sides :(.

I love the fact that you see this as a hobby and are willing to put in considerable time and resources to pursue this.
I hate the fact that you won't seek a way to bring this to the masses, either by starting a business or selling your designs.

I have licensed several dozen of my Jeep/offroad designs to companies over the past few years, including:
- The LJ/TJ version of the Safari Cab hardtop, to Gr8Tops: http://gr8tops.com/shop/jeepmodels/w...b-full-hardtop
- Two fiberglass trailer designs (a Jeep-tub design and a military replica design) to Compact Camping: http://www.dinoot.com/
- This company's entire Jeep product line: http://www.morryde.com/product-categ...ep-accessories
- And pretty much everything this company sells, except for a few Molle pouches: http://www.retrofitoffroad.com/
There are more products I've designed and licensed, but those are the highlights.
What's fun for me is the challenge of designing some new accessory or mod for my Jeeps. If nothing I design ever gets to production, that's fine with me because I get my enjoyment out of the design/construction process and of using what I've designed.
I just don't think there would be enough demand for the JK Safari Cab to make it worthwhile for me to spend the time helping a company get it into production.

Someone asked me to show them what their Commando Green JKU would look like with a Spice Safari Cab.
Spice looks good with Commando Green...
Outfitted for an expedition...

What he said exactly, I think most of us are just aware our fab skills couldn't produce an end product half as nice as yours. The end product is amazingly well done, and I think those of us who are a bit lacking in the fab department are just lamenting the fact we can't order these :-)
