The second part of my gift is a whole bunch of content inspired by the lots posted above, but obviously can be used in other contexts too.

All sorts of odds and ends and bits and pieces... )

Did everybody find these? My TBTO Summer Challenge gift for jensmustles...

It's probably no secret that I think shasatakiss is altogether delovely, so when she asked me to make these meshes, and I discovered that it was her birthday, all in the same week, how could I resist? Unfortunately, I'm as slow as slow can be, so this is at least a month late, and probably more... so it's an unbirthday gift, for an unbirthday.




Included is my usual gold recolour for the frames. The meshes are slaved to Maxis 'Bella Squared' for the painting texture, but the frame texture is independent.

There are base-game (nothing special to say about this) and AL-friendly (will appear at the bottom of the wall when selected from the catalog and can be shifted to the desired height) versions included in the download; please select the correct one for your game and discard the other.

Since on their own the frames looked a little lonely, and as shasta seems to appreciate a cute print as much as I, I also made a handful of recolours of 'Bella Squared' to go along with them:

And then I just went mad, and made some additional recolours for the BV travel poster too (because I came across too many cute pictures that were unsquare, but that I wanted to use anyway!):




{these will work with HugeLunatic's base-game version of the Maxis mesh, if you don't have BV}

I'm so behind on posting stuff! Anyway, if there's anyone out there who missed the GoS Advent this year, here is my contribution:



Previews, swatches and downloads... )

While I was making the new default and custom bedding that I posted yesterday, I noticed a few little things that bugged me about the two sets of bedding I had made previously. So, I have updated those two sets - mostly just in terms of rescaling the patterns slightly to fit better, and tweaking the shading overlay (which was a little off-centre before).





The original download archives have already been updated, but here are the files again - just redownload and allow them to overwrite the old versions:

Au revoir!

Feeling crappy today, suffering from my second cold in less than two weeks, so I'll let the pictures do most of the talking on this occasion...



My defaulting obsession continues under here... )

It seems I never shared these on my blogs - shocking! ;P

Anyway, here they are now, my contribution for the GoS Treasure Hunt earlier this year (in case anyone didn't find them, although given the number of downloads I think that unlikely!) - 25 patterned recolours of the Maxis bedding:

I'll just leave this here...

P.S. Isn't Trapping a genius? :)

Something very simple for the current GoS theme (hopefully I'll have time to make something a little more exciting before the end of the month comes around): just some default-replacement textures for the OfB girls' blouse, in three different flavours (please choose just one), plus customs. I used Huning's 'Pony' colours, supplemented with a couple of concoctions of my own (also based on My Little Pony colours), plus a handful of print patterns:



All the pretty swatches and download... )

This is pure self-indulgence really (but even if you're not a Whovian, there might well be something else for you under the cut). I can, however, think of one - maybe two - other people who might want this particular piece of art for their games!



Vwerrrp, vwerrrrp... )

Nothing new here I'm afraid: just a joint effort by myself and [personal profile] zerographic, in answer to a GoS Wishing Tree request from a little while ago, that I thought I would chuck on here for completeness; it might be new for some though.

I was hoping to have a little New Year gift ready, but nothing is going right, so I'm sorry but it seems unlikely. :(

In the meantime, have some old stuff...

The Gift

It's that time of year again! Yes, Christmas-in-July at GoS has come, and gone, but the goodies remain.

Firstly, I was lucky enough to have Sentate as my santa, and if you haven't already done so, you must go and grab my amazing gift:

Photobucket

Also, since both my own santees decided to share their gifts, I thought I might as well post them here too.

For Eva (eefje00704) I made a set of medievalish-themed stuff, including 'hood deco, walls, floors and terrains, and some recolours of the Maxis roof:

Photobucket

For Izza (sims_by_izza) I made a set of dresses with stompy boots, Pook'd makeup and vintage wallpapers:

OK, herewith my last offering for this month's theme at GoS...

I have a thing about old maps - I think they're beautiful and fascinating (and I figured that I can't be the only one who feels this way?). So, when I recently came across some wonderful textures, I had to put them in my game. The problem was, so few Maxis meshes were the right size or proportions (why so many square pictures, Maxis, and so few rectangular ones?!), and I was too lazy to hunt down exactly the right custom meshes. And, call me crazy, but I actually prefer to use Maxis meshes whenever I can. Hence, this idea - stolen partly from Fantasyrogue and Graverobber - was born.

I ended up with 14 new meshes, which all started life as Maxis meshes and have now been stretched and cajoled into different and more useable, shapes, sizes and proportions, all slaved to Maxis textures. Plus my map recolours.

Of course, if you don't happen to be into old maps, you can just use the new meshes as a Maxis add-on set, and a convenient way of re-framing any existing recolors of the meshes to which they are slaved.

Some of the new meshes are slaved to Maxis pictures from various EPs and SPs, but for those who don't happen to have the packs in question, I have also created base-game versions of the Maxis meshes, so the EPs/SPs aren't actually required (just remember to download the extra base-game-friendly meshes if you need them).
