New Light Through Old Windows

Hello... gosh, I really need to clear away all these cobwebs and dust bunnies...

Anyway, I've started making things again, sort-of.

When I first converted the EA 'BahHaus' build set, I couldn't be bothered to convert the fence, but I've finally got my finger out and done it. And fixed a couple of bloopers. So, all the components of the set now have prices (sorry, no more free windows!). I've also realigned the diagonals for the two corner windows, so that they do now sit in the corner. Finally, I've also made centred versions of the two corner windows, because I wanted them. Et, voila!

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town: Part II




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.

The Unbirthday Song

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}

Off the Wall

Just something oldish that's been buried in the GoS Wishing Tree for a while...

Hello City



I've had these 95% complete for a while now, so it was time I finished them off and uploaded them. Just to clarify, these are the 'basic' versions of the TS3 Late Night buildings - i.e. they just sit there, looking buildingish, and don't light up at night. However, there is also a bonus wharf building, two cranes (with flashy red lights on top!) and some scaffolding included.

We are still working on the lit versions, and they'll be ready when they are ready. ;)

In the meantime, enjoy!

The Pandorica Opens

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!

Art School

Last month's theme at GoS was Art Nouveau. It's not a style that I've ever really paid much attention to before, but I discovered a bit of a love for it during the theme, and came up with this as my contribution: a beautiful piece of furniture by the incredible Scottish architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh, translated from real life to the best of my ability.

There is more information about Rennie Mackintosh here, and on this piece in particular here.

Untitled I: Now with Base-Game Meshes and Updated Recolours!

Since I first posted these at GoS a couple of weeks ago, I have fixed a small issue with the plain seating recolours (maybe no one else noticed, but it was bugging me), so please redownload these below. New downloaders please note that the full download has also been updated, so there is no need to download the fixed recolours separately. Plus, it also occurred to me that base-game-compatible meshes might be a good idea, for those without Pets (or any other EP that might affect the functionality of the objects) - these can also be downloaded separately below, and should work with the existing recolours.

Anyway... a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away (forgive me, my inner geek is showing), Maaron requested TS2 conversions of some TS3 sets originally by Nanu. Here, finally, is the first set, all done and dusted.



ExpandIt's all happening under here, come and join the party... )

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:

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

Sale of the Century: Bargain Bin

I should have known that I couldn't do such a monster post as the previous one without making some sort of mistake! Doh!

Anyway, mostly I just forgot to include two more recolours for one of the Awesims cornice conversions.

But, while I was sorting that out, I also took the opportunity to update the deco end piece so that it would be quicker and easier to place more than one at a time (it now behaves like dining chairs, etc., and after placing one another is automatically available to be placed), and tweaked one of the recolours for said deco that I decided was annoying me.

EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT INTO GRUNGE AND DON'T WANT THE ADDITIONAL RECOLOURS, PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE FILE BELOW (CLICK ON THE PICTURE) TO GET THE UPDATED DECO END PIECE AND IMPROVED TEXTURE FOR ONE OF THE EXISTING RECOLOURS.




Sorry about all that! Right, now I'm going back to finish off yet moar stuff...
